...... I wish all computer users can get away from the Microsoft / Adobe / Apple etc etc herd mentality of following a big name instead of thinking creatively and for themselves.  I'd far rather support someone who tries to be creative and does it within an Open Source Community, than empowering big names such as Microsoft and Google.  Only reason these big conglomerates are getting away with this is because people who can afford to pay the price are paying for big licenses to keep them in power at the expense of those who cannot afford it.  Which is exactly what has been happening with cPanel. Your large companies who are using cPanel are funding this big price increase to the detriment of those who cannot afford to pay the license. Something needs to be done to break that "greedy spell".

I would say I totally agree with you.

Sadly those large companies which are using cPanel probably do not want to fund cPanel at all. Say if they stopped using cPanel now, they might lost a lot of their customers.

The main problem here is that they do not have better choice that can keep their current customers happy.
