Abstract
Due to increased market turbulence, firms not only are faced with the decision to use open source software, but also consider releasing their proprietary software under an open source license. Beside the appropriateness as an open source product this raises the question of how to profit from giving something away which then is available for free. This article contributes to this discussion by addressing possible open source business models with regard to the type of software.
