Developing FOSS is not at all altruistic once it is past the minimum
usability stage.

Imagine a company needing 100 seats of functionality X; which may cost
$2k x 100 for commercial software, where you are dependent on an
external vendor, rolling your own which may easily top $2M, or 
investing $50k in a FOSS alternative to make it suit your purpose.

In alt 1 you have a budget of $200k plus maintenence by a single
vendor, in alt 2 you have a budget of $2M and the result is not 
proven and you are stuck with whoever built if for you, and in 
alt 3 you have a budget of $50k, and a choice of a whole ecosystem
to service it for you. You just have to contribute the code back
to the ecosystem.

Competitive bidding for that ecosystem is alive and well in 
all the large FOSS systems I have worked on.
