If it's true the hypocrisy is through the roof.

Umbra:
I would sell my morality for much less than 2 bilion dollars. And Notch probably wants to do some other project, Minecraft is pretty much established

Rhekimos:
What's so bad about this?

Other than that he kind of ripped off every early investor whose purchase decision was influenced by Notch's vague promise of a "some sort of open source" version. But we all knew that was never going to happen by now anyhow.

He obviously realized he was a one hit wonder and good for him for realizing it in time and getting his money's worth. Though I feel bad for his employees who actually wanted to do creative things in his company, I understand sobbing could be heard in Mojang Sweden office when the news broke.

Leshma:
Told ya he's a prick :wink:

Ikarus:
Soon you can only access Minecraft via Games for Windows Live  :mrgreen:

Would do the same, the big time of Minecraft is already over anyways
