In his Article "Software as Property: The Theoretical Paradox" (http://emoglen.law.columbia.edu/my_pubs/anarchism.html), Professor Moglen suggested that in an environment where marginal cost is equal to zero, "anarchism (or more properly, anti-possessive individualism) is a viable political philosophy" (The Legal Theory of Free Software).

In his Article "Software as Property: The Theoretical Paradox", Professor Moglen suggested that in an environment where marginal cost is equal to zero, "anarchism (or more properly, anti-possessive individualism) is a viable political philosophy" (The Legal Theory of Free Software).
 In the realm of software, Moglen’s facts instruct us that anarchism produces better software than any of our pre-existing propertarian modes. Distribution, it goes without saying, is also inherently bolstered in this regime. With regards to goods that are non-functional and impossible to evaluate by a single set of criteria (herein referred to as “non-evaluable goods”), such as music, art, prose and poetry, Moglen explains, anarchy will deliver superior distribution.
