I think the reason for the discontent is that Knighthood seems a "reveared" title given to those who have gone "above and beyond the call of duty in serving humanity". Is donating that much money great? Sure. However, I think the mitigating factor is that the amount he donated is pocket change to him (his personal net worth according to forbes is 43,000 mill. - thats 43 billion - dollars).

I'm not saying it was the wrong thing to do, nor am I personally disagreeing with the discision. However the queen does seem to be quite giving when it comes to knighthood titles. Just look at "sir" Conrad Black.
