I means it's always good to reduce reliance on anything, so I won't argue against that, but I won't agree much with your reasoning. The cost we were actually paying on the Google Maps API was hidden. The cost was mostly paid

Plenty do make 60k and 300k is pretty far from being "typical" in Montreal. I agree though that 60k isn't typical, that would be close to the starting salary. I'm still new though, so couldn't say what's typica

That's what happens when you get a huge portion of the market and get close to a monopoly. You could ask many Steam user what Steam got that others platforms doesn't, and most will say that it's because everything is on there

You realize how your argument could apply to any monopoly right? They were able to get 100%, they have to provide significant value to reach that ;). Sadly it's more complicated than the size of their market.
