I'm at the point in my life where I simply don't trust free software that isn't open source. I've been burned too many times.

Either charge me money so we have a legal bond, or open source it.

Free closed source is untrustworthy software that may just disappear/break with no respite.

If it's open source and you stop maintaining it, I can fix it myself or at least try to. It if isn't, I'm screwed. I won't become dependent on software I can't trust to work years from now - I don't need that in my life.
