Well, VLC is released under the GPL license. For answers to most basic
questions about the GPL (and, particularly to some of your questions),
you should really have a look here
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html. 

Basically, we do not sell VLC. The program is provided for free as
it is. However, nothing prevents you from selling it. The only thing
is that you *have to* give all the source code of VLC, and of all
of its contribs, as well as all the source code of all the eventual
modifications you could have made along with the software. The same way,
you cannot prevent your client from redistribuing the software under the
same conditions.
