Didn't Ardour use to sell binaries? I was looking at it a while ago for inspiration on how to make money for Octave. Have they switched to a monthly subscription donation service?

I'm sure Paul would be happy to speak to you on IRC (#ardour on Freenode) about successes/failures but of course I can't say this for sure. Also, I am awaiting a stream of Paul's upcoming talk (as I can't get to France for LAC2017[2]) "20 years of Open Source Audio: Success, Failure and The In-Between"[3]. I hope part of the talk will address the financial aspects that are of interest to you.
