Lock-in Concept
From DocWiki
In economics, lock-in, also known as vendor lock-in, proprietary lock-in, or customer lock-in, makes a customer dependent on a vendor for products and services, unable to use another vendor without substantial switching costs. Lock-in costs which create barriers to market entry may result in antitrust action against a monopoly.
Proprietary software and follow-on services is often a source of lock-in.
