This has to be taken out of context and is very misleading. The last I spoke with Stallman he was saying non-free software for GNU/Linux is bad for freedom. While the above statement may be a quote from him it doesn't lead to say he supports or otherwise encourages non-free software or is in any way good for freedom or GNU/Linux.

This is different from the licensing issue. Not everything should be released under the GPL. However that doesn't mean it is OK to release it under a non-free license.
