AOL Time Warner's $100 million investment in e-tailer Amazon.com this week highlights an emerging, high-stakes battle between the media giant and Microsoft.

According to a source within AOL, Monday's deal was aimed at boosting the company's e-wallet and related authentication services by tapping Amazon's e-commerce technology--a key element behind the e-tailer's reputation for strong customer service.
