I liked this. It got me thinking:

Are there any large consumer software companies (just software; no hardware or retail) that are not advertising based?



Microsoft? They do advertising among other things, but I don't think it makes the largest chunk of their revenue


I'm not sure I'd consider Microsoft consumer focussed. Most of their revenue comes from enterprises, OEM's and Azure.


Netflix? HBO?


Videogames?
