For a previous financially successful "open source" venture in a totally different realm, view _Sita sings the Blues_ and dig into the associated blog. Nina Paley produced this animated feature in 4 styles, and gives it freely for personal or commercial use. She claims to have gotten more money return from donations and her (non-exclusive) products than a mainstream sale contract could yave yielded. The issue of derivative works is particularly thorny: Disney owns Snow White, the talking wooden puppet, etc. through the copyright on derivative works.
