license is more attractive to company guy because he
can find it good for faster development.
for example - 4-5 mobile company and one big search engine company
work together to create a mobile operating system which is not GPL,
now, Other companies can take that code and add their proprietary
addons on it to look it more attractive and extra feature.
Except that it gets rooted and shredded and mangled, and the
companies
look like dumb and dumber. After a year or so of bitrot it really
goes to the dogs.
like what has happened to Apache, python, postgresql, perl, php ...
