Had thought Bing maps will come up as a legit alternative for Google Maps about 6 yrs ago. What's happening there now? Are there other competitors for Google maps in the works? It's a super monopoly at the moment but I believe it's not as difficult to replace as YouTube.
Its Apple maps bad
Here ,Mapbox etc
Bing maps lol
Google map doesn't make much money. Cost of building a mapping solution from scratch is too high. I am surprised Apple keeps persevering. I don't see Microsoft doubling down here.
Agree on from scratch. But Bing had a good start. Maybe with Android winning the war and MS mobile dying, the maps strategy was abandoned as it couldn't be bundled with anything.
