DDD is all over the place and doesn't have focus like Arcam and focus is needed here. Of course, I can't say for sure that they will not be successful in developing a competitive position to Arcam but I strongly doubt it. Here's the reason why. Arcam has had the company and research culture behind it for nearly 2 decades, DDD, not so, not in that way, not even close.
To see what it took in research and development to get Arcam to where it is today, read and understand the volumes of research in which they've been involved. As for DDD, they're great when it comes to making "play purties" for toddlers.
