Well... in my opinion (and I believe everybody's opinion who favour GPL over BSD or similar licenses) the GPL is "much, much more free and open" because it ensures the "chain of freedom" down the road by forcing people to not close the modified source under certain conditions (what is known as the "viral" aspect of the license).
Thus, by removing *just one* degree of freedom, it ensures that the source will be free forever, enhancing the world's knowledge pool, etc. That is, removing just one degree of freedom (freedom to close the source) really *expands* the overall freedom.
Now, I won't go over what is better WRT business and the like. But when we talk about freedom, I think the GPL really nails it.
My 2 cents!
