expect something more like open source platforms + file formats, commercially licensed plugins for non-commodity pieces of the puzzle
office <-> avid is a pretty broad spectrum. I'm sure there are ways in which office is not a commodity available for free on every platform, and as a libreoffice user I feel the limitations of libreoffice sometimes, but office software is mostly a commodity.
video + graphics software OTOH doesn't have a strong oss contender IMO
also unclear how AI will change the game -- will we sell software or trained models. will plugins from different training sets be 'incompatible' in some way that favors one-stop-shop vendors
