Have you ever heart of busybox and its court battles? They won all of them, got all sources plus money (for the lawers). And lost time to make new stuff. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BusyBox Linux is a very good example too. Companies have to disclose the sources to be part of the kernel. Even Microsoft understood this (hyper-v). Nvidia is on its way, it seems. Disputing the success of Linux is ... a waste of time.
