So even if I sold as many as 100 the amount is irrelevant. my concern wasn't about someone getting rich from my work, it was about the principle of someone being able to use my work in a way that doesn't reciprocate in either an open-source/GPL or a financial way. i just see that as wrong even if the financial amounts would be small, but i don't require that people agree with me. --p "ardour ported to JUCE, coming ... not" :)
