So the legal line is that once a company is successful in bundling and selling products the bundle is locked and can never be added to? That seems unreasonable

So the legal line is that once a company is successful in bundling and selling products the bundle is locked and can never be added to? That seems unreasonable to me, and I generally am pretty hard on monopolistic issues. Edit: wouldn't this mean that Apple could never have added a preinstalled app to the iPhone after the phones became successful?

If success is near total domination then yes?

No, it's just that you can't use dominance in one market to privilege yourself in another. Basically cross promotion and bundling are looked at very sceptically once you get large enough.
