The power of monopoly. Microsoft is like the U.S. government - the only superpower, and so it can do whatever it likes. Why the EU goes along with either party is beyond me..

Microsoft knows it cannot stop "professional pirates". This has nothing to do with "piracy" - it's all about gouging the home user, parents with children also using PCs.

Capitalism is the exploitation of the weak. Duh.
