I'm torn. I don't like the idea of a truly dominant game in the market. Competition and choice are both good. But I do think having a big company in the industry, one that has enough muscle/budget to get the word out about the game and get the idea of RPGs on people's minds, is of some benefit. If every game had about equal market share, but were done by smaller-than-TSR/WotC companies, I don't think you'd see the mindshare that RPGs have today.
So I guess I have a mixed opinion on the whole thing.
As far as D&D being a good entry game? It used to be. I think it's been moving away from that since 3e came out due to complexity. We'll see if the Essentials line reverse the trend.
