If efforts like this are to be sustainable in any lasting way, participants need to be cooperative, not parasitic.

> On the one hand you have—the point you’re making Woz—is that information sort of wants to be expensive because it is so valuable—the right information in the right place just changes your life. On the other hand, information almost wants to be free because the costs of getting it out is getting lower and lower all of the time. So you have these two things fighting against each other
He stated later more succinctly:
> Information Wants To Be Free. Information also wants to be expensive. ...That tension will not go away
