Trust the rating on sites that appear to have comprehensive information. To find a UPC - you can typically search for a Model Number (B816RR) and find a website that also shows a UPC for that product. In fact - sites with the UPC listed are naturally more transparent and trustworthy - as they allow for product cross-referencing - with any site that uses the UPC. Specifications should be thus reconciled, and identified with a good level of certainty.

	For the case of the [[Open Source Economy]], where [[Distributed Market Substitution]] becomes a reality based on optimal products - the case for the UPC becomes strong. Keeping track of best versions is a good idea. Identifying an optimal version can promote its replication. Identify building block [[Modules]] in a [[Construction Set Approach]] can lead to collaboration. From the standpoint of generative construction sets - identifying the critical building blocks is important. Here OSE can join with UPC and GTIN standards to facilitate the open source economy.
