Imagine this: Microsoft demands that Nvidia uses WDDM for their drivers. Otherwise DirectX would not work with Nvidia.

Do you thing Nvidia would ignore them, like they ignore Linux?



M$ would probably pay nvidia. Does linux pay nvidia?


Nobody pays Nvidia. Nvidia has an opportunity to enter the market (on Windows and Linux) and it is up to them to use it. It usually goes easier if it is not against the grain.

On some platforms (Mac) they don't have that opportunity at all.
