Join Jonathan Williamson and myself, Jonathan Lampel, as we talk about how Blender's Open Source GPL license affects the users and creators of free and paid Blender addons.
If you make addons, use addons, or are just spectating the Twitter debates about addon piracy, this is a discussion you won't want to miss!
Great mindset, focus on the right market !
maybe we should just coexist with them they think the internet is a coppying machine and that information wants to be free and stuff
I recognize that I use pirate Retopoflow, but that convinced me to buy it
That's incredible for me that people pay out of their pocket and then shares it for free for everyone
[Q] Not a question, but my POV: From a legal POV OpenSource can't be pirated. A morality POV is different. I explain it to people like that: Buy it and you get support, furthermore you support the developer to continue the maintenance, so in the end paying for the addon brings you benefits.
Despite that: developers have to eat, so support them.
what the heck are they talkin about lol
yea my bad foo lol
Makes sense though
Your name is considered as a donor not the owner
did you know?
