Microsoft Seeks To Be The King Of Entertainment
from the oh,-that-too dept
With all the lawsuits and fighting about what's going on in Microsoft's OS strategy, people may be missing some of its extremely aggressive moves into the world of digital entertainment. They see it as a huge business, and plan to dominate it. Of course, they've said that before and failed, but Microsoft has a history of saying something and failing before coming back and destroying the suddenly too cocky competition.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
