One can't help but wonder if all these 'special deals' Microsoft is making with Media Player, a bundled-in (microsoft says glued-in) application in Windows, will cause them further heartburn with the DOJ ?
I can easily forsee this becomming an issue. TL |

It'd only potentially cause problems if they were actively excluding others from similar deals.
The deal with Disney isn't exclusive, and anyone can license the WM technologies for inclusion in their own products. This doesn't tie the Disney offerings to Windows as their are several consumer electronics devices currently or soon-to-be on the market that support the format, as well as the Mac player. |
