Not only that, but it also kills one of the main drivers of innovation 
and motivators for a company to do a decent job. That is, competition. 
Effectively, there is now exactly one source you can go to for screen 
reading software for windows. (I'm not counting NVDA here since it's 
open source and uses a different model) If the company doesn't want to 
support something, or if they decide to be nasty to their customers, 
nothing you can do. They can set prices however they like and you have 
no recourse. (Other than creating a new company, switching to open 
source solutions, or not using Widnows that is)
