That's what nVidia has done with the binary only modules. Now are you going to get satisfied with them? Binary only modules mean untrusted code right in the kernel. Is this okay with major portion of the buyers? > Ps:This mail is posted from a FreeBSD system. Microsoft had to publicly admit that they stole large amounts of code from FreeBSD Source. But it is not illegal as FreeBSD is distributed under BSD license. Anybody can download FreeBSD and change every occurence of "FreeBSD" with "MyOwnOS (TM)" and sell it without breaking any law.
