A non-rival good is one that can be used or consumed by one person without reducing the amount left for others. In other words, a nonrival good can be used again and again at almost no additional cost.
Examples of nonrival goods are designs, movies, television, fireworks, algorithms and patents.[1]
Goods which are non-rival and non-excludable are public goods.
