How does a company recoop R&D investments? Let say we spend $3million and 5 years making a game and release it as open source. What is stopping a bunch of server farms from running our stuff for free without ever having spent a dime on R&D and thus being able to sell the service for much less.
Most people sell advertising to support stuff like that it seems. Other than that perhaps you just can't make money that way. I'm fine with that. There are lots of things that you can't make money doing. And if it comes down to turning our country into a police state and giving up control of our computers so DRM can work so that a company can stop people making copies of their software I'm against anyone being able to make money that way.
