You do realize that this feature supersizes the impact of price dumping.

Pay 1 dollar less today. Pay 10 dollars more in the future on everything, the second the smaller local store goes out of business.

At this rate why even bother with the pretext or capitalism. As long as price dumping is tolerated those with the most wealth can buy a monopoly.

If you choose the largest and cheapest vendor for something you are failing yourself, your friends and family and your neighbours.

If you let Microsoft do this, you might as well get on your knees and kiss the feet of Jeff Bezos. One company should be enough for everyone.

And then we don't need this feature anymore either, because there will be no choice. We won't even need advertising anymore.
