My understanding is that you have the rights under the open source licenses to use, modify, and distribute (we cannot and do not want to remove these), but to get maintenance and support *from us* you have to subscribe per-system.
Exactly. and if you don't license per-system you loose maintance and support from Red Hat.
As I understand it, that's because the cost of the Red Hat service product is N dollars per system. If you don't pay the cost of the services, you don't receive the services.
Based on your other mails I just read, I think I'm explaining something to you that you already understand.
In any case, maybe it will help others.
