Crime, but no punishment for Microsoft
Talkback Personally, I think a much more effective remedy would have been to allow them to continue shipping Windows Media Player, but to make them ship it with an OGG encoder in place of the WMA one.

EC freezes Microsoft's punishment
Talkback On the contrary. Most of the time you do have the option to buy a car without the radio at no extra cost. I bought a new MG ZR (great car) a while back without a radio. Even on cars with the radio built in to the dashboard you tend to get a choice...

EC freezes Microsoft's punishment
Talkback But on the other hand, the EC don't tell car manufacturers to sell their cars without the radio, do they? You can change the radio if you don't like it, but you'd find it hard to buy a car without one.

Crime, but no punishment for Microsoft
Talkback It has been my observation that the only people who get upset over the Linux vs Microsoft war are the people who actually pay for MS products. The ones who steal them sit quietly back and say nothing.which is the best way to stay out of the spotlight.
