everyone should have seen the writing on the wall when all the small companies were being gobbled up by the large. can't beat the competition? buy it.
so, you have a few super companies, and absolutely no competition. and then you have high prices, because who's going to act to bring them down? it's the 'governments fault' in that the regulatory bodies allowed all these mergers to happen. and now we pay the price, yet again, for lack of foresight.
