Microsoft has embraced the start of a great 'bundling' phase as part of the market's often-repeated cycle of 'bundling and unbundling'. Seems like a smart strategy for their current situation. At some point in the future when the bundles become bloated, inefficient and/or lose product focus, new entrants will come and offer single-point 'unbundled' solutions as a means of further innovation.
