Yes, and this is a good thing. It encourages the provider of the data

subject of the data.
There is potential for conflict of interest here, though: what if the
consumer of the data (i.e. paying customer) is also involved in spamming?
This is probably an exception.
Normal customers will subscribe (let me use the word subscribe instead of pay) in order to use the
DNSxL to help him fight spam. Spammers will subscribe, probably, to check if him is blacklisted.
This means, the DNSxL list provider shall tell what's the intended good usage
of the list.
