So Dreamworks, George Lucas, and ILM aren't professional and you don't want to use the tools they use? Ok.
Proprietary software products (Flash, webOS) are never abandoned but open source ones (Apache, Android) are?
When HP abandoned webOS people put Linux on the Touchpad because without HP webOS, being proprietary, became useless. An open source system like Linux doesn't become useless because one company goes away or drops it. All of the other developers and users just keep right on going without that one company.
