Gov't, Microsoft fight over online music | |

The dispute centers on a design feature in Windows XP called "Shop for Music Online," which lets consumers purchase compact discs from retailers over the Internet. When consumers click the link to buy music, Windows opens Microsoft's browser software even after consumers specify that they prefer using rival browser software.
Unless there are some security concerns the browser that the user specified should be used. |
