As someone who has contributed to that free codebase over the years, I don't care that they're using the code. I don't really even begrudge them charging for their derivative product. I do agree, however, that they are sleazy. But only because they don't give credit where credit is due. But then acting "dishonorably" isn't really a charge that carries a lot of weight these days.
