They try to, but usually they do it so badly that the rip-off versions 
disappear again relatively quickly. Those that do continue to be sold 
are usually inferior or at least not as popular as Apple's products.

For example, Microsoft's Zune, which was a rip-off of the Apple iPod. 
The Zune was on sale from November 2006 until June 2012, while the 
iPod, in various forms, went from November 2001 until May 2022.
