> Would you be okay if large for profit companies didn’t have to abide by open source licenses?

Yes. I believe in the MIT licensing model.

> What’s the incentive to make movies or music just to be given away for free?

Firstly, almost all the money made from movies/music is not made by the artists who created. It goes to the shareholders of large corporations. Secondly, I believe in the hacker ethic of free information online. All media/information/etc online should be free. In the physical, making copies of anything costs time and money. Whereas copying digital items is a click of a mouse. Thirdly, artists can still make money via their fans. If fans like their stuff, those who can afford it will pay.

> Would you work for free?

Nobody is. But then again, why pay someone for something they didn't create. Licensing doesn't exist to protect artists. It exists to protect large corporations.

So are you saying that large companies operate with a 100% profit margin?

If people can’t afford something that means they should have a right to it anyway?

If a company can’t afford my labor at the price I set, they don’t get to take advantage of my labor.
