The revenue split is certainly a tricky question, however at this point it seems obvious that:

  1. Open-source maintainers
  2. The only thing that seriously dented piracy is Netflix/Spotify/Steam

When it's easier to buy it people tend to do so. I definitely think it's worth working around that idea.

The problem I see is we're not dealing with people, we're dealing with organizations. Its a bit odd but I don't think a company would decide to pay for such a service.
