There’s a time and place, no? You buy a $30k video switcher with support, do you really want to fuck with the internals or just get the company to add/fix features you need. It’s impossible for the company to support you once you’ve fucked with the thing.
I understand open source - we use it and we contribute. But that doesn’t mean we can open source all our code. We have competitors who would abuse that. If no one can make a living selling code, then there will be no one to support open source.
