The exact problem is that they can steal your code by taking it, making 
significant changes, and forcing you to buy it back from them if you 
want access to those changes. That really sucks. If someone wants a 
license to my code that's more friendly to them not having to give me 
back the changes they make then let them purchase a different license 
from me. Easy enough, puts money in my pocket, and keeps others from 
screwing me over. So I guess I should say that I like to license my code 
as GPL with the option to purchase a commercial license.
