I say it is consumer hegemony and
voluntarism that keeps markets free.

I agree. But when a company grows too powerful and vies to stay on top, there is no extent to which it could stoop to stay on top. Microsoft is a perfect example. Netscape, because of its unfair positioning is pushed out of the way in favor of MSIE integration with Win 98. There is nothing that Netscape can do to combat Microsoft because it doesn't possess the ability to fight back.

Their only hope is bankruptcy. That is not freedom in the markets. That is corporate hegemony.
