It is a new mentality that seems to have taken over the last few decades
with the open source movement.
Many seem to believe that everything should be free.
Problem is, if people produced works for free, how would they support their
families?
Magic it would seem.
I can understand the open source end where people donate their free time to
build something better.
But at the same time, I ask myself how these people would survive if they
didn't have their day jobs
Some of these people writing open source software have that as
their day jobs.
