Yes, because monopolies are so good for gamers.
Many seem to be looking back at the PS2 as some sort of halcyon days, but Sony gave us a console with two controller ports, vastly inferior online, no consistent 50/60hz support in Europe, draconian policies on 2D games, and so on.
Similarly at the start of the PS3, they made similar mistakes in that they thought Achievements was an insignificant fad, nobody needs cross-game chat or consistent online, etc.
As mentioned by others, if one competitor left, it would leave a vacuum for someone else (Amazon, Google, Apple, etc.) to step in.
