Comment what about end user consumer products (Score 1) 540
I believe it is quite easy to come up with ideas for OS business models targeted towards business software... Charge for support, charge for add-ons, etc...
But what about business models for software targeted towards home users? I have thought how much fun it would be to write an open source game or other consumer product. Something that businesses couldn't really use.... How can you make money off of home users of software when you don't charge for it? Why would they want to pay for support when you can search the internet?
