You got it reverse. Most permissive licenses need attribution (in form of leaving the original header comment etc) which lets the whole world know that you are using the component. A commercial license gives you complete anonymity (most let you completely change the source code) except for the charge on your credit card bill.
And I don't think its greed. Not many applications on any platform gets written completely from scratch without using other libraries.

Attribution in the form of source code comments is really only valuable in other open source projects.
