So true. Taking it to the extreme "somebody is going to win the lottery." Providing you can maintain the desired level of service you want to deliver, the many client approach has its advantages.
You have made several good points. In the few client environment the client can make demands and it's difficult not to comply. It's been said IKEA goes back to its suppliers and says "now that you have been delivering a product for us for awhile, you have logically developed cost savings in your process. We would like you to pass these along to us so we can pass them along to customers.
One of the advantages of many clients is the ability to build many of them into something larger.
