What car is being sold for $1 ? Hint for when you join the real world: none. Cars cost many 1000s to the consumer and they'll likely sell far more per copy than a DCS module.
These guys and gals will be using hardware used to scan textures, record sounds, write code, create 3d models etc, need licences for the software they use, pay rent and other bills if they have physical presence.
How rude of the developers, managers, testers, artists wanting to get paid.
Never mind some profit for the company to conduct future R&D, expand, pay employees for products in early development.
This attitude that all software must be free or $1 is offensive, plain and simple
