It's more than that.
Why do I release OS code? Because I want to make the world a better place, building a "commons" so everyone benefits.
What if you don't want to contribute back to the commons? What if your company doesn't value the commons? Fine. You can pay me for my time.
I don't need to volunteer my time to make Windows, MacOS, or Proprietary forks of Android better.
Remember the controversy of CyanogenMod going commercial? I didn't understand the issue. If Google and Samsung can take your code and use it in proprietary apps, why can't Cyanogen?
