There will always be an option to replace morally bankrupt software... It may come late, but it will come. Napster came out of a need to de-fund greed, so did bittorrent and re-engineered/edited software builds, and many other solutions created by the more ethical/enterprising parts of the underworld.
As shareholder-driven greed consumes these large monolithic companies and their overhead eats them out of their massive office campuses, they will eventually realize that product coexistence and maintaining product reliability/performance while putting customers first will be the only way to survive once their guaranteed government buying partnerships face a new audit and dry up fast.
The cycle is terrible to productivity and for our sanity, and ad revenue is not worth all of the stress they put all of us through. There will also be lawsuits and many other issues raised eventually once people realize that getting robbed at an ATM because you had to watch a 5 minute ad, before your withdrawal completes, is a very stupid idea.
