His business reasoning is pure genius! He is a very cool guy when it comes down to giving back to his community! Great article by the way.

He really is a very cool cat and VERY smart...He got lucky with winamp and the AOL buyout in the Dot Bomb era ...it was the wild west of digital music and the internet... Not Bill Gates lucky or facebook lucky but a lot of millions going to kid under 20 is pretty damn cool...That he took what he liked and disliked in Vegas and improved on it and put it out for free like winamp was awesome...In the software world almost making it opensource for us...the collective of cool smart people both on the coding and the recording side have allowed Reaper to become a swiss army knife recording software the likes of which nothing really compares...Really a kick ass evolution....It has become a business but still carries some of Justin's simple and cool rules...like always releasing it fully functioning uncrippled and leaving it to the user to be cool and pay for it or not....it is a damn honorable way of doing business
