Microsoft unimpressed with EU slap down

Microsoft is upset that the EC is painting a picture of a recalcitrant company that has spent almost three years not conforming to the EU's requirements. "We submitted a pricing proposal to the Commission last August and have been asking for feedback on it since that time," Microsoft general counsel Brad Smith said. "We're disappointed that this feedback is coming six months later and in its present form, but we're committed to working hard to address the Commission's statement of objections as soon as we receive it." Smith said that Microsoft has spent "many millions of dollars" trying to comply with the EU's decision.
