The regular market rules don't really apply to Open source software. A lot of viable (or even thriving) open source projects would be dismal failures as stand-alone businesses or startups. Paradoxically, the only way they can provide real value is in their current form of open source projects.
I would have given CyanogenMod as an example, but the amount of inept management at the startup there would cloud the issue.
