I used to write free software, because I like programming. It was fun to write little utilities, and the fact that people actually used them as well was a bonus. Lots of times I would write software because I did not want to pay for software, so I wrote my own version. Apple made it to easy for me to make money doing this, now I write iPhone apps, have just as much fun, and made quite a bit of money at one stage.
