The effect of NOSTR will not be to eradicate those services necessarily. If NOSTR networks effect grow those platforms have an incentive to adopt the standard and gain access to all of the other content published in this format.
They can still compete on brand recognition, general UI UX, user experience, etc.
I expect some of them will probably try and do something like "we'll show you content published through nostr, but not write your events out that way" in an attempt to maintain their monopolies (I think this will fail).
