Microsoft can do that by actually competing. Throwing money around solely to take things away from people who don't buy their products to entrench themselves in the market is anti-competitive. Allowing that sort of thing means any behemoth can come and muscle their way into any market they want to. This is a bad future.

    Throwing money around solely to take things away from people, like Sony does? So it's fine if it's small enough and affects less people (Xbox users)? Or the other illogical line of thought of "they're both not okay but don't let them do what the smaller guy who controls more of the market does".

    Microsoft is only bigger because Xbox isn't separate, they're not even second biggest after the purchased.
