This is true.

This is not true. They're supposed to pay a royalty on any copies they
sell (supposed to being the operative word here, though I honestly
don't know if they've sold any, since I haven't received a report from
them on this). I decided that a good feature for DiskSalv 4 would be
the ability to "plug in" other file systems, and there was a fair bit
of demand for AFS. But FLD didn't pay me to do it.

This is true. Has been since about 1979, but it gets more true each
year...
