Microsoft offers new evidence in EU case

Interestingly, Microsoft provided some new evidence this week to support the company's claim that bundling WMP with Windows hasn't harmed competition. Citing strong sales of the Apple iTunes Music Store, which recorded 800,000 paid downloads in its first week of availability in just three European countries, Microsoft lawyers argued that "this market is vibrant." The company also pointed to Dell's music-software licensing with Musicmatch and similar deals as proof that WMP isn't harming competition.
