just 2 in the list were GPL licensed :/

I know that MIT is no Copyleft license, but is that really a problem?

not actually. I also use many programs that are MIT or BSD licensed.

it's just that replacing working GPL'd programs with MIT ones might be more appealing to corporations than someone like me who cares as much about ideology as the programmes themselves.

I don't wish to see services being sucked for their value by corporates who give little to nothing in return. history is replete with such instances.

I do understand your scepticism towards companies; the reason for my question was that I got the impression from your first comment that you don't like/install MIT code and was just confused as to why someone might dislike that.

Exa dev couldn't even spell license right...

licence is a word, commonly used in commonwealth countries.
