GPL has often been considered very "virus" like, it's presence in your project effects much more then just the chunk of GPL code you're using. If your needs are keeping your projects' code closed (i.e. a very common situation is NDA agreements restricting how open you can be with your code), there are very few ways you can make use of any GPL code.
