TV: Let's take a case here. I can see that a free software developer might be able to make a living by doing free software, because people would pay for the software, pay for the manuals, pay for the joy of being a part of the community, and so on. I don't think that is impossible. The same might go for certain musicians, even scientists and so on. But how about a writer, a poet, even a musician that works in a very limited language area&mdash;say, Finnish. Making free software or free music or free poetry will not be a viable option, because the community is too small to support that kind of activity.
