    Microsoft purposely hindering the ability for competing software,

    Nope. MS was declared a monopoly because of marketshare and therefore had to add support for competing software.

    Offering a better service that attracted customers.

    Monopoly is from marketshare. How it is obtained doesn’t matter. Once you are the biggest company you need to have restrictions placed on you so that smaller companies have a chance to compete.
