With so much GPL-ware out there, why bother?

Just because plenty of people are willing to give away software for free
(which is great and should certainly be encouraged) doesn't imply that 'pay'
software can't be useful and well worth the money. There are many examples
of software out there where the free stuff still doesn't come close to
containing the functionality of the pay versions... although of course there
are also plenty of examples where the free stuff is as good or better than
the pay stuff!
