Market Place Risks
Software and hardware vendors make a profit by selling something no one else has or can get.
In 2004 RealNetworks announced it had successfully duplicated Apple's iTunes data format. Shortly after this RealNetworks began selling iPod-compatible files at a lower price. Apple responded quickly by disabling the ability of the iPod to read RealNetwork data formats.
The decision to make this change was based not on technology but on market forces. As a consumer of data formats you are forced to sit on the sidelines and watch as the software and hardware industries fight it out for profit revenue - at your expense.
