Yeah. My experiences with the OSMF is that companies won't pay for charity, but they will comply with licenses.

Hmm, companies often use GPLed software without complying with the license (for eg Vizio is being sued right now), so I wonder why the OSMF situation is different.
Some percentage will not comply. Either in bad faith or just lazyness/incompetence/accident/whatever. But as long as that number is relatively low and a decent chunk pays "their dues", it is not really a problem.
