The downloadable version has to be purchased. However the Web version has been 
improved and now includes Section 508 compliance checks. The Web site is still 
free to use.

Here is the relevant email detailing the upgrade and new pricing arrangements:

CAST releases Bobby Worldwide with Advanced Evaluation Capabilities 
Because you have downloaded Bobby 3.1 or Bobby 3.2 in the past, we want you to 
know that Bobby WorldWide is now available. This new version of Bobby from 
CAST is a Web-based tool that analyzes Web pages for their accessibility to 
people with disabilities using both the Section 508 guidelines and the Web 
Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) from the Web Access Initiative.

Bobby WorldWide offers you new analysis and ease-of-use features that help you 
analyze your site.
Bobby WorldWide can:

Analyze your site using the Section 508 guidelines
Test more pages in a single session
Analyze your site using WAI Conformance A, WAI Conformance AA, or WAI 
Conformance AAA guidelines
Provide more user-friendly analysis reports
Test pages that use Secure Socket Layers (SSL)
Provide better detection of HTML file types in Frame source
Bobby WorldWide comes in two versions - the online server version and the 
downloadable version. Try out Bobby WorldWide by visiting www.cast.org/bobby 
and typing the URL of your site into the URL box. This demonstration server 
version of Bobby WorldWide lets you try its new features and CAST continues to 
offer this version free of charge. The downloadable version of Bobby WorldWide 
is now available for a modest fee.
