Although I'm no legal expert, it seems to me that the traditional concept of dumping cannot be applied. The economics of the software industry are unique in that there is a fixed up-front cost of product development, but if, for example, bundled with another for-sale product (on the same CD), there is absolutely no ongoing cost for it. Thus, one could argue that giving it away is supplying it *at cost* (zero), at least once it has been sold long enough to make up for the up-front development costs.
