I'm sort of reminded of the book "Schiit Happened" from the Schiit guys (they make cool headphone amps). They documented how they started their business.

One thing they mentioned is that apart from RCA jacks, all the surround sound standards are tied up and closed.

Anyone else knowing any industries where "standards are tied up and closed"?
