MyFonts is owned by Monotype, the big gargantuan soulless mega corp that is still profiting off typefaces designed by people that have been dead for over a century.

But if you look at independent font developers (who are just folks like you and me), most are perfectly reasonable in pricing and license constraints, and are happy to answer questions or even change the terms and conditions if this makes it easier for you to spend the $30 - $100. I don't think any of these are trying to be litigious, and they're certainly not ignorant.

(Though I understand that your misunderstanding of the web font licensing might make it look so!)
