Why can't a good feature survive on the market?
For most people, consolidating many services into one is just more convenient, even if it means using a "good-enough" version of that feature.
E.g., digital displays are a "feature, not a product". End-users get value out of digital displays on their thermostats, microwaves, etc., but no end-user buys a digital display themselves, thermostat and microwave manufactures buy them.
I think the problem with Dropbox is that it's become too easy for product companies to build data syncing themselves.
