I don't think there's really a lower cost, as you still have to do the same work with screenplays and storyboarding. From a writing perspective, as long as the writer is well-versed in the characters and setting, it's probably sometimes easier to write new material rather than try to find ways to adapt existing material to the anime format in a way that'll make everyone happy. But anyway, whether they use the Drama CDs as a reference or not, it will be "after story" content in either case.
