That was the point I was trying to make - "we" (society) see FOSS as a commons good, so it suffers from the tragedy. But to try and get some of the value following to the creators, we could make the path of companies easier to hand over cash - buying relatively small amounts of "access" ( it that has its own downsides)

Basically this is a hard problem and without a market solution it's unlikely to ever get within spitting distance of fair. But I cannot see the market solution.
