That quote means nothing given the number of telcom mergers over the past decades. If those companies can be merged any companies in any situation can.Also, this quote by the FTC is excellent and should address some posters' concerns:
A few posters here argue why doesn't the FTC look into Sony's level of market share and why the FTC is protecting Sony. This quote answers those questions.
The FTC is not concerned if a company, through in-house pedigree, talent, and efforts, reaches the top. Why would anyone stop that rise? By the end of the PS3 generation, the console market share was equal: 84 million (Xbox 360) vs. 87 million (PS3).
By the end of the PS4 generation, Sony was outselling Xbox One by a ratio of more than 2.10. PlayStation bought no multiplatform publishers or IPs during that period. It was all done in-house.
Microsoft is trying to lessen competition and reach the top through mergers and acquisitions. And that -- as highlighted by the quote -- must be stopped according to the law.
