What you're saying is common knowledge.

What I'm trying to say is: Don't compete directly.

Apple didn't compete directly with the music/tv/movie industries but yet they too manage to have a huge leverage over them. And they managed that legally.

There will be a certain metric that matters in competition. We just need to know what that metric is.
