Wait a second, I see no problem with offering proprietary software as
a prize, for these reasons:
1. "Free Software" has yet to produce a music program for the PC on
par with FruityLoops, or at least I've never heard of one.
2. "Free Content", acording to Lawrence Lessig's book by that name, is
in no way opposed to the concept of a "Free Market", thus, offering
proprietary software as a prize in a contest would not be opposed to
free content ideals, since "Free Content" and the "Free Market" are
also supposed to compliment each other.
