This won't solve anything. The goal should be to find a solution which
would allow for financial compensation to original authors, however i
don't see this happening until linux becomes mainstream(i.e. open source
driving the world of software) simply because it would need a complete
overhaul of copyright law and a worldwide adoption of such
solution/mechanism.
There will always be folk that simply want to write applications and sell
them. There has to be room for both. Different folks support different
ideologies. Maybe there's a better time to convince folk that yours is the
only solution?
