That would make it very non-free software. And that is what ubuntu is trying to not be.

- ps258 14y agoYou can sell free software. It's free as in freedom not as in free beer. http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.html http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.html > You can charge nothing, a penny, a dollar, or a billion dollars.
- kintamanimatt 14y agoIf you're referring to the price, well, that was covered by another comment. Ubuntu's full of non-free software and binary blobs. This is why it pretty much works out of the box. There's little fucking around with drivers, non-free codecs, etc. In any event, adding non-free "premium" features doesn't make the operating system itself any less free.
