They found they couldn't make enough money this way, so they stopped giving it away for free. FreeBSD is a group of volunteers who work on the OS in their own time and give away their product. Companies take the product that we produce and sell it (e.g. on CD). Notice the difference between these two approaches? It means there's basically no chance that what happened with RedHat will ever happen to FreeBSD.
