What are the reasons people pay for WordPress themes?
I started a website less than three months ago and I'm getting a very high amount of traffic (in my opinion, anyway.)
I was wondering... do I need to pay for a premium Word Press theme to legally sell advertising on my site? I'm very new to this stuff, and hopefully one of you can clear this up for me.

I don't know about advertising, but every theme have different advantages. Like if someone wants to show a main picture on the header but is not able to because of current theme, the changing the theme is the only option. Else one can opt for coding also, but not much of us choose that. And like this for big corporate houses or professionals, their needs make them switch themes.
And yes, providing more eye-candy can also give a hike in traffic but not for long. Content is the main factor.
No you don't need a premium theme to sell advertising.

Premium themes generally tend to have more updates and support than free themes. That's the primary reason people pay for them, I think... so that if they get stuck somewhere or need something customized and lack the coding skills to do it, they know they have someone to turn to for help.
And some of them just have some really nifty features that aren't available in most free themes.
