  A big deal
Time: 13:03 EST/18:03 GMT | News Source: Economist | Posted By: Robert Stein

SOMETIMES a seemingly modest business deal can change the course of an industry. This is particularly true in high tech.

Will a settlement announced on May 29th between Microsoft and AOL Time Warner, a huge media conglomerate, one day be seen as the birth of another Microsoft killer application: the platform for delivering music, video and other digital content?
