When it comes to software, I much prefer free software, because I have very seldom seen a program that has worked well enough for my needs, and having sources available can be a life-saver.
If you focus your mind on the freedom and community that you can build by staying firm, you will find the strength to do it.
In India, open-source code software will have to come and stay in a big way for the benefit of our billion people.
