Same here, Martin. I think that some people are under the impression that all "creative" people are in it for some "higher purpose". For most of us it's just a job that pays the mortgage and puts food on the table, and we couldn't afford to do it if we didn't make money from it. "Donate-ware" just plain doesn't work - give the average person a choice about whether or not they'll pay for something and, surprise surprise, they'll opt for the "not".
