Destroy the machine

gallir in Ricardo Galli, de software libre describes this parable (Destruir la máquina) about free and open source software:

Suppose a machine was invented that could take a single loaf of bread and duplicate it any number of times for almost no cost. What would you do? Would you destroy the machine, or would you continue to charge 50 pence for each loaf of bread only in order to support the old business model of the bakers?

Surely you would recognize that the world has changed and new social and business models are required?
