They really are one of the few general market consumer software companies that can get away with this sort of predatory pricing and behaviour. I remember propagating the view during the endless debate on Canon/Nikon not openly publishing their proprietary RAW data so that Adobe could design a better Camera RAW, that the real danger was Adobe, not the camera manufacturers, because they are a monopoly, and that is always the most dangerous type of entity for end users. Now that axiom is coming home to roost. I really do not understand why anybody would want to even more firmly get into their clutches by using DNG (unless unavoidable, i.e. Leica).
