I have no qualms with proprietary software, but there's nothing wrong with free software either. This whole "BAWWW, THE GPL KILLS BUSINESSES" thing is bullshit. If your software is better than the free alternative, it will never die. The GIMP will never replace Photoshop. Ever.
Also, what about proprietary freeware, dipshit? Making Netscape and IE free made it so no one else could (successfully) charge for a non-mobile web browser. Microsoft fucked Netscape over and killed their revenue by giving away IIS. Windows Media Player being free and bundled killed Real (thanks God). IBM successfully made it so no one else could charge for a Java IDE by funding Eclipse.
Newsflash: Your "Evil" corporations like IBM and MS are "destroying" the computer industry as much as the GPL is.
Making some things free is necessary for the computer software industry to thrive, who the fuck is going to pay for all the libraries installed on their system? Why should a hobbyist programmer pay for a compiler? Why should I pay for something easy to implement that would take me a day to write?
