If I could be certain this is true, I'd be optimistic.
It would mean (because of some things being more profitable than other) that after long labor pains (involving legal battles and IP laws changing for patents and anti-monopoly laws changing back to working state) these companies were going to die and the better ones were going to take their place.
The problem is that the kind of people that run these types of companies will first see the world burnt to ashes before losing profits and power.
So yes, they will fall, but they'll be taking us down with them.
