Yep. The Corporate demand for siloed ecosystems is self-defeating. There are other examples of the same paradigm with VHS v Beta, DVD Audio vs SACD, Dvd vs LaserDisc etc.
Frankly, I don’t really care if the tech dies- the companies that “support” it are too flimsy to be counted on as going-concerns, they’re just fighting their own downward spirals.
I think my point stands.
