Oh I don't know about that. Money will stop innovation. It always does. Microsoft and Sony don't want their cash ciw being split up.

If they stop companies from locking it. That would be barely something

Money is the key and I agree it will take some massive disruption to overcome the current state… But just because someone holds the cash now, doesn’t mean they always will. History teaches that lesson over and over again, especially with new technology.

Uber vs taxi monopolies. Netflix vs Blockbuster. Apple vs BlackBerry.

You aren't wrong. But usually the changes moves one conglomerate to another.
