Yes, but how do those film-makers put food on the table ?
How did all those volunteer open source programmers put
food on the table if they weren't getting paid for
their work?
They had other sources of income.
Are there ANY OpenSource developers who do JUST Open Source software and
not get paid for it ?
How does Google put food on the table if they
don't charge you to use their search engine?
They started with VC money, then did advertising, and now went IPO
The VC'ers wanted a return on their investment, so do the advertisers
and so does the stock market.
