Sony buying everything is just as much a problem as MS doing it. I think the main difference is that they’ve stayed under the radar by doing smaller purchases, but I want someone to push the brakes on them equally as much.
Microsoft can do that by actually competing. Throwing money around solely to take things away from people who don’t buy their products to entrench themselves in the market is anti-competitive. Allowing that sort of thing means any behemoth can come and muscle their way into any market they want to. This is a bad future.
Except Microsoft is in a distant third place in the gaming market - Sony has had the crown for that for years, and has actually used its market position in the past to make things worse for competitors and for gamers in general.
Let’s hope it doesn’t happen. I don’t know why some people get excited. Monopolies are never a good thing and Microsoft is ONCE again getting too big…
except we need Microsoft to get bigger to stop Sony from being a dominating monopoly.

Kinda like Nintendo back in the day.
Sure, i don’t like monopolies, but pushing Sony of his comfort zone and making things a little better for users in the way.
