At first glance it would seem like github is "leaving money on the table". But if Patrick is right then their time is better spent strategizing maximum value from the high end rather than devote time to getting your $10 dollars.
30+ repos in your case would be the Gold plan @ $100.00 a month. How much do you think is fair? If you have 30 client repos per month please tell me you are charging more per client than the $40 dollars it's going to take to host the project in github for a year.
And if you aren't making money hand over fist with these hundreds of apps people are apparently creating and hosting on github .... make them public.
I have 13 repos in github, all public. Most of them are all attempts at commercial products. Nobody gives two peanuts about my code.
