Q: 

How do WCF RIA Services compare to LiveCycle Data Services?

WCF RIA Services for Silverlight and LiveCycle Data Services for Flex look similar on the surface but there must be a reason why one is free while the other costs a fortune.

Could anyone provide a brief description of what is similar between them and what makes them different?
