Mostly, people who pay for e-mail service are paying not for the access to e-mail itself, but for security features and/or technical support capabilities. This is, for example, true of America Online, which offers both a free application and an offer to pay for a service that includes support.

Yes, email providers vary greatly. Some are free, some are not. Some offer POP and IMAP, others like Hotmail only offer it to paid users. (If you want to use an email client like Outlook or Thunderbird, this is important to know.) Some have great web interfaces, some have no web interface. Some offer filtering, custom mailboxes, superior spam fighting, etc. If you're unsure, I'd suggest considering Gmail as the standard and going from there, based on your needs.
