A good, service or resource that is unable to prevent or exclude non-paying consumers from experiencing or using it can be considered non-excludable. An architecturally pleasing building, such as Tower Bridge , creates an aesthetic non-excludable good, which can be enjoyed by anyone who happens to look at it.
A hammer is a durable rival good. One person's use of the hammer prevents others from using the hammer at the same time. However, the first user does not "use up" the hammer, meaning that some rival goods can still be shared through time. An apple is a nondurable rival good: once an apple is eaten, it is "used up" and can no longer be eaten by ...
In social science, the free-rider problem is the question of how to limit free riding and its negative effects in these situations, such as the free-rider problem of when property rights are not clearly defined and imposed. [4] The free-rider problem is common with public goods which are non-excludable [b] and non-rivalrous.
Club goods: are the goods that are excludable but are non-rivalrous such as private parks. Mixed good: final goods that are intrinsically private but that are produced by the individual consumer by means of private and public good inputs.

Often these goods exhibit high excludability, but at the same time ...
Leasing model: The user does not own it permanently but leases the information good or service from the provider and pays a fixed fee on a regular basis. [6] For example, mobile music applications. Consumers pay monthly for listening rights to all songs on the platform. Selling model: After prepaid, consumers can use it unlimited times. [7]
A private good is defined in economics as "an item that yields positive benefits to people" [1] that is excludable, i.e. its owners can exercise private property rights, preventing those who have not paid for it from using the good or consuming its benefits; [2] and rivalrous, i.e. consumption by one necessarily prevents that of another.
