IMHO we have a perfectly usable model for GNU/Linux services - co-operatives. AMUL and the assorted sugar co-ops come to mind. Common branding with the producers making available their services locally under this brand.
True. Actually, the reason to rope in the corporations, is for the necessary funding. Every co-op has to start out with capital. And if the operations don't get profitable soon enough they will need sponsors. If there is another way to get it, then who needs the corporations right? ;)
