Competition is difficult when you are up against powerful large
companies with well established products. Nobody said it would be
easy.
Competition is nearly impossible when a few powerful companies use
the legal force of government to preserve and protect an oligopoly or
monopoly.
Perhaps the best comparison I can offer is what is happening in the
music business. We are seeing more and more artists choosing to go
direct, selling CDs out of the trunk of their car (or their website)
when they do live performances. Some even encourage file sharing to
help make their music more popular.
Obviously, the big music companies are trying to shut this channel of
distribution down. It's now up to "The Supremes"...
