It is a place where you can voice controversial ideas which may not suit the 
majority of people and not be told "this is off-topic". 

Example: 

Comments like the following could result in some limited agreement on this 
list. 


DistroX should be allowed to charge money for the work they do in creating a 
product. 

There exist too many Linux distributions. 

Fully-functional ISO's are preventing Linux companies to grasp the true 
potential (aka paying) market for their products. 

People undervalue the Linux OS and its applications when they demand a copy 
of a release for $30.00. 

There is nothing wrong with selling enterprise Linux products at ten times 
the price than the consumer product if the user conceives value in this. 

Paying customers should be receiving products and services while non-paying 
potential customers should not. 

"The pay-pay VS free-"free" Analogy": Some Windows customers expect to pay 
for support when they pay for commercial software. Some Linux customers 
expect free support with their purchase of the "free" Linux product.
