Not free as in FOSS because it's limited to non-commercial projects, but they're Valve. Devs will probably be able to strike deals if their monetization schemes aren't exploitative.

IIRC, the price for a Source engine license is $50K, Valve also has been picky about who gets them these days because people kept leaking stuff.
