My points: - Normally is easier to sell software support than software licensing and for this is good to open your source, as will be possible to gather collaboration of other people; - Gathering collaboration for other people is easy to recruitment of new talents; - Larger market players will offer different services if they try to take advantage of open-source, and even if they offer the same service, costumers prefer the core maintainers when making big contracts for support. - Open your code will help to make a software with better quality, as when you can't get time to fix some bugs some people can do this if it is of big priority for them.
