Then what's the lawful distance between goods and services that company should be able to offer?
I get the position that big is bad, and I don't entirely disagree with that, but selling watches offers no unfair benefit to apple in the movie studio business, and vice versa. It's not like they're tying one good to another, or leveraging market power in one to gain market power in the other.
So if we want to say that you can't run a company that makes consumer electronic devices and a movie studio (see also, Sony, Amazon), then what's the limit?
Should a company that makes motorcycles be allowed to sell, say, fine stringed instruments (Yamaha)?
What about a company that makes industrial adhesives? Should they be allowed to also sell office supplies (3M)?
