Dual licensing is a thing, so it's not 0€$£. Also if they didn't care for the license, it's probably also not crediting you for your work, so your software isn't even better known.
Once you blast the lawsuit into the press your software gets better known. FFmpeg was fairly well known before it got hijacked and stuffed in every set-top video decoder box on the planet, but now it has that reputation as well.
