I'm surprised to read such a take given pretty much every enthusiast I know went through the reverse cycle over the last 5 years when it comes to CPUs. I don't know anyone right now who is running Intel on their desktop computer.

Saying they don't have a monopoly over those services is still a stawman. They don't have a monopoly on music streaming, but they actively force Spotify to effectively support their own competitor via their 30% fee. Apple TV+ does
