Blender has been "free" for a long time. The blender 1.5 manual is 
dated October 1998. The program could be downloaded with most features 
available. Through a small fee you were able to get a key file to 
unlock some additional features.

The program went open source July 12 of last year. For more details 
(and a one year report on the program's development since it became 
OS), take a look at:
