Why should artists use open-source software?

The idealistic reason artists should use open-source software is that the open-source community and the artistic community share the concept of accessibility for the purpose of improvement or of the creation of something new.
The pragmatic reason artists should use open-source software is that open-source software is usually free. This allows artists to allocate their money to their other needs.
