I can hear their wings flapping! Of course, for example - if a highly respected provider offering substantially significant upgrades in features buys out Joe's corner shack - I think they'd be laying golden eggs. Churn is inevitable, but from my own experience, this can be minimized by running both brand names, then phasing out the old as clients got used to invoices from the new owners.
