The author of the question says, "The money is fair enough..."
His question is one of control, not money. The OP wants to control his life and his product.
Truth is, products don't last forever. They require maintenance and support, marketing, infrastructure, pricing, and a whole lot of other things a few guys focused on development aren't thinking about right now.
A lot of cash in the pocket = a lot of time to think.
I'm not saying they should sell, I'm just saying that I don't understand why you are bringing money into it when money wasn't a factor for the author.
