EU Says Microsoft's Abuses Are Ongoing

levell writes "Although the legal difficulties Microsoft was having in the US seem to be drawing to a close, it's not yet over in the EU. In this story, the BBC reports that the EU says it is still abusing its monopoly with Windows Media Player, and perhaps more interestingly from a Linux point of view, also in the low-end server market. The story is also being covered on CNN, Ananova, Reuters, etc." The EU's press release is informative.

Why wasn't MS split?

If you look at all their branches, they're all being funded by the OS sales alone. Everything else is losing money by the bucketload, only to maintain a monopoly dominance in the market by doing so. Giving away close to, if not free software at a huge loss on purpose to be supported by a completely different division is absurd.

They need to be split, and now. Just my opinion...
