Yeah, I’m really not sure how the monopoly → non-monopoly dynamics play out in practice. In theory, perfect competition should drive the cost to the cost of marginal production, which is very low for software. I briefly tried getting empirical data for this, but couldn’t find it, plausibly since I didn’t really know the right search terms.
