I think it's just this attitude that prevents a lot of companies from finally making the jump to the Linux desktop. I mean, how dare they sell a product, and (gasp!) make money doing so! You're absolutely right...the very fact that the software is open source and freely available elsewhere removes any right they have to charge any more than what you could buy a six pack of Old Milwaukee for at Citgo.
They're not forcing you to buy it from them...only offering...
