The Solution to Near Perfect Software
Open source software is the best solution available to creating near perfect software. I say near perfect because there will always be someone who doesn't like a certain feature in software, no matter how amazing everyone else thinks it is. However, open source software has many developers working on it at once–sometimes several hundred at a time. Many developers equals many diverse backgrounds. Many diverse backgrounds means many different people specializing in different things. Thus, open source software may have the advantage of someone expert in machine learning, and someone expert in data structure architecture, and someone expert in mail protocols. All together, these developers can, and with enough time, will turn the software into a [near] perfect masterpiece.
