I don't think it's a problem. Developers that develop for Windows collectively make far more money than Microsoft does. Windows is a platform and Microsoft does a good job of being a platform. While Microsoft bundles, it's not problematic like Google or Apple. Their way of doing things is different. The problem with the smart phone world is that apps are distributed through stores not websites. There isn't any worthy exclusive Windows Store app I can find. Every useful software is available from the websites. In the smart phone world, as a device manufacturer you have to get Google's blessings. They control the play store. And as a device manufacturer, no play store = no sales. The app store parasite model needs to end. I get no viruses in years, and I download software from websites all the time on Windows 10.
