While I don't really care, as long as they continue to survive and provide equipment compatible with what I already have, I see two quite important advantages:
- economy of scale - usually translates in lower prices, and it can make possible higher end, low volume products. Maybe even that "full frame" everyone is dreaming about
but it can also mean using higher quality components in some products.
- more founding for R&D - required to stay competitive and even move forward.
