I want not just the US Government to win its antitrust suit, but I want it to bring many more (against not just Apple).
> On the other hand, I don't believe companies should be forced to make their products work with competitors' products
To me, this is the crux of the issue. They shouldn't get to be competitors. No one company should be able to have such a large market share in so many different spaces. This is so obviously bad for consumers, as well as for smaller companies that might want to enter any of these spaces.

I'm glad things have worked well for you, but this clearly is not the case in general. For example, I'd be happy to subscribe to Apple TV+, but they are not interested in me as I don't have any of their hardware to stream on.

Good thing you don't need any of their hardware to stream AppleTV+ on. You can go stream directly from their website, https://tv.apple.com https://tv.apple.com. Or maybe from your Samsung tv, or maybe from your Roku.
