Now it is Oracle's turn to go Express

According to Syscon, looks like Oracle is going to come out with a lightweight low end free version to compete with the likes of MySQL and SQL Express.

Andrew Mendelsohn, senior vice president of Oracle's server technologies division, has given a briefing to CNET in which he apparently says that a new low-end edition of Oracle's 10g database will be released by Oracle Tuesday, aimed squarely at free and open-source alternatives to Oracle's 10g such as MySQL and EnterpriseDB.
