Really? You think software like Linux, GNOME, KDE, Firefox and so on was created on the hope of getting green?

The difference between software and art, is that software is often a community project, and you seldom know who actually wrote the piece of software you are using right now. But when it comes to art, there is usually one person behind it.

But it still requires creativity from its creators. A lot of people who put up art on DeviantART don't expect a dime (well, most), but expect to be recognised by a community. And honestly, that means more to me than money, but hell, I wouldn't mind money.

But usually, when your foremost goal is getting paid, creativity seems to get hit as well. If you want to be recognised, then you have to do that extra.

Which is usually why some films are not made with the content of being profittable, they want critics to like the film, rather than make a buck of it. Can they do both? Then excellent. Some of the most profittable films are not decent films, and some of the most decent films were flops.

Does money create better art? I beg to differ.
