It's free of price.
Blender is free and price too, and he is free (libre in french), and he do more of just models.

Free of price yes, but in the agreement for it to be free, you are not able to model something and sell it... xD

NO.
A licence on a program is on a program, not of what this program out with your creation!
Only you can apply a licence on what you create.
And the movie Spider Man 2 had use Blender you know for example (games too).
Please give me a link to the blender organisation where they say you must do GNU GPL licensed models, i think you will not found it.

Yes, the GPL prevents people from stealing the code of the software to develop closed-source software. Because the software is open source under the GPL, you may browse, modify, submit fixes, and even fork the code, but the code for the blender software itself must remain open source, and you may not develop a program using blender's source code that is in any way closed source.

The models you create with Blender, however, do not have to be open source, and you may sell the models you create if you wish -- you just cannot sell the blender software itself.

I also got Max for free (as required by my university course). The license does indeed say you cannot make money from its use.

And no doubt they have a global network of spy's checking out 3d models in commercial products as a backup to the spyware AdskScsrv.exe...

3ds max is different. It is commercial software and the devs make their living off of people buying the software, so they'll give you the stripped down version so that you'll eventually buy the full software when you do start making money off of it.

Blender, on the other hand uses this licence:

Anything created in the editor belongs to Activision, not that It cares at all, Bz2 would be "abandonware" if only It had even remembered it was there to be abandoned.
