Those who advocate FOSS agree with you.  You have the absolute right to 
do whatever you want with your book/software/music (note: intangibles, 
not tangibles).  However, some of us also believe that if you don't 
share your intangible creations freely with the rest of the world, 
you're not being a good citizen of the world, because you're indulging 
in hoarding of ideas for your own personal gain.

That you can sell your software for money is not questionable.  Whether 
you should or not can be deprecated or lauded, but in this list it can 
certainly be debated.
