That's a noble idea, but aren't you afraid that it will have the
opposite effect and scare people away?

I don't see many vanilla computer using musicians jump through the hoops
of building and installing LilyPond just to get some score PDFs.

Wouldn't something like this work better (amounts are arbitrary):

  - for 5$ or more you get the source
  - for 10$ or more you get the PDF
  - for 50$ or more you get a printed copy mailed
