This is actually the tactic that Microsoft used to own the Office market, I believe... they first released a "Microsoft Office" that included Word, Excel and so on, all in one, for less than two of those products sold separately.
That, of course, completely wiped out single-products that couldn't be sold in a suite, e.g. WordPerfect. Once the market was clear of competitors, they then proceeded to slowly but surely increase the price of the suite (and the price of the standalone products along with it).
