As per a support post, the changes will make it easier for businesses and educational institutions to download the apps through the Volume Purchase program.
While many Apple users were already eligible for the free software, the update is good news for those with old and secondhand devices, along with people with "hackintosh" computers. Macs tend to last around four to five years, and afterwards many donate the computers for educational use.
