Companies (and many individuals) will push the limits until they get pushed back. Some just don't get noticed, or aren't deemed worth the effort.
I think that Apple's refusal to allow products that duplicate features on their own to be extremely anti-competitive - in fact, I see that as much more anti-competetive than MS and the whole IE debacle. I'm shocked that lawsuits haven't appeared. They're not the only ones - it's been an issue in the video game console market as well.
What's the saying...It's easier to ask for forgiveness than beg for permission. That's just being carried to extremes now.
