That can be the case. The other scenario is the Qualcomm (Flarion) / Apple (Fingerworks) / Amazon (Mobipocket, CreateSpace) model where the bought in company is devoured and stripped.

Philips bought UK Mullard in 1928 and seriously nurtured and supported it till the late 1960s.

Then others simply asset strip: Hansen of UK Ever Ready. Then USA Energiser/Eveready (NCC) was bought by Purina Petfoods. Then that bought UK Ever Ready off Hansen and killed it totally.
Thomson of Inmos. Part of Thatchers philosophy of Services only UK in 1980s.

A dog might accept such crowded conditions, a cat never will. All those useless knickknacks (e.g. laptop, ereader) taking up space that should be reserved solely for their Majesties must go, or they will be knocked aside/jumped upon.
