- "It’s exciting to see desktop 3D printers proliferate in waves, corresponding with the patents that expire with each technology. The FFF/FDM 3D printers that exploded with the expiration of Stratasys patents are responsible for the existence of this website and the subsequent boom in the technology, spurred by media attention and the resulting investment that attention brought." - Sintratec to Launch €3990 Desktop Laser Sintering 3D Printer in October By Michael Molitch-Hou On Fri, September 5, 2014 · [1]

- In his book Free, WIRED editor Chris Anderson writes “It’s now clear that practically everything Web technology touches starts down the path to gratis, at least as far as we consumers are concerned. Storage (unlimited email storage) now joins bandwidth (YouTube: free) and processing power (Google: free) in the race to the bottom. There’s never been a more competitive market than the Internet, and every day the marginal cost of digital information comes closer to nothing.” See also the Hacker Crackdown
