In a muddled way, the "IP" is fixed at zero (since you can duplicate it without incurred cost). Access to a physical copy is, however, subject to the choice of each distributor. It is like selling compressed air: there is a lot of competition going on in that area, even though the principal commodity is prize-fixed at zero. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ Gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
