well the more obvious reason is someone has offered a considerable amount of money for a version of this type of software. Reason for this is, they can install it on as many servers as they would like without costing them additional monies, they can control the analytics produced because they have source code (or i would) They could have a controling interface for many server resources. currently no one i have seen is giving you ANYTHING but a bill on a regular basis for alot of money. i am in the position of being the developer potiential for this project. i wouldn't wanna go to the client and say, hey here is a half baked solution that you don't own , that you would pay 5,000 a month for , but you can use three servers with one server instance. and just sort of tell them its to hard to do. whatever the number is to build the software i have to come up with. I know there are alot of companies doing something similar and extending licenses for the use of the software. This is not a taylored solution that will work
