You're missing the point. He's saying that there's technically a choice, yes. You agree on that.
The part you seem to avoid agreeing with is that it can often be a really annoying choice to have to make. Isn't everybody entitled to be annoyed when they only have one so-called choice? (Like having to move or use slower alternatives in order to get away from Comcast as your ISP.)
Continually pointing out that there is technically a choice doesn't really help anyone who feels bitten by their lack of choices.

You don't get the right to be annoyed when you have to comply with the license terms of something that you haven't had to spend time working on (and usually get without paying for it).
