Guess I need to look into what CrossOver is doing.
Normally, I would feel like if a free app (OSS on top of it) is threatening the viability of a paid one, the latter is not particularly worth the payment.
Now unless CrossOver is actually an Open Source paid app and is significantly contributing to the Open Source part despite loss of competitive advantage, that might make sense.

Just personal ideology. Said paid software is the wonderful CrossOver.
