Re: "But if I make two copies of the same computer program, is there twice as much experience, or only the same experience? Does someone who runs redundantly on three processors, get three times as much weight as someone who runs on one processor?"

Er, that depends on the moral system in question.
We're not talking about morality here, we're talking anthropics.
