I shall reply so you can gain a better understanding of what exactly is going on rather than the silly 'money hungry' one.
For starters, the majority of the Halo community already has every map. Therefore you not having them, you are in the minority. So they are, by making playlists DLC required, giving that MAJORITY the ability to play the content they paid for. Which seems near the opposite of 'money hungry.'
Secondly, Halo: Reach is coming out. Due to this, the player population is going to drop dramatically. Very few people will be playing Halo 3 in comparison to Halo: Reach. Due to this, Bungie will be removing some playlists and melding others into each other. They also make them DLC required? Why? Well with this relatively low population, they want people to find games. So since they have made playlists DLC required, they aren't going to do something like add non-DLC required playlists. Why? Because that would split the population and make it that much harder to find a game.
Making playlists DLC required is for the enjoyment of the majority of the community. If you don't like it, then go buy Halo 3: ODST. It comes with all the maps, PLUS it's an epic game in its own right (not to mention it isn't $60 anymore so there's really no reason not to buy it!).
I hope that helped you.
