I just want to clarify:
I'm not saying giving away samples is bad, but that the general wisdom that this is the only way to build a business is significantly flawed.
It's a marketing strategy, and for most industries and businesses, a suboptimal one.
Obviously for tech and information based businesses it works really well, but in other businesses (especially service based businesses), it's not necessarily the best road to take.
