Yes, there’s still a cost (as there is for most things), which is sub-ideal compared to the free Linux alternatives. But given the easier install and broader compatibility with both applications and hardware, it’s not too much to pay. And this is a convenient format to buy it in.
That said, your computer probably came with Windows. Or you have an earlier version you can upgrade, likely for free. So really the only use cases for this are if you are building a PC yourself or if you have a Mac and you’re using Boot Camp or Parallels or the like. In that case, you know if you need this and if you do, then buy away!
Also the entire packaging looks awesome. It's a sleeve holding a box with a flap that underneath it reveals the product key code card, fits most wallet card slots if you want to carry it for whatever reason. on the left side is a paper that is folded like a brochure, and hides the USB flash drive that contains windows 10. I don't need it because of windows 10 being on the hard drive I already had, I just needed a legitimate retail key for board swap, original board had an OEM copy. I just appreciate the extra drive I guess even if it's not made for writing to and I think that might corrupt it honestly, considering other people's experiences they've been known to be cheap but its not too difficult to make your own bootable drive using Microsoft's Media Creation tool, just need a separate computer. The brochure flap has 3-step instructions on what to do on clean, blank drive installations which is simply plugging it in and making the first boot option the USB drive and then exiting. Behind the tray holding the USB drive is a manual/guide that I never used so I have no opinion on it.
My advice is to get this type of windows 10 product due to the retail version which is very useful if you like the ability to upgrade to different motherboards with ease in simple deactivation of the old computer's windows 10 and plug and play with the USB boot drive. In the long-term there's also financial ease in not buying one-time-use OEM codes and considering that Microsoft's done with windows versions, you're all set as far as I know with having to upgrade to a, "Windows 11".
