Google should offer to help them for just,,,, oh I don't know... perhaps 8-15
dollars per device.
Then they could give the money back to the Android Partners who were subject to
the Android patent extortion racket Microsoft has going.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

That's a good one!
I don't think MS has ever focused on technology...
but it's certainly possible that they 'think' they're a tech company.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I warn you, it's dastardly.
Given:
- Microsoft's Youtube app has the following effects:
-- It removes Google's ads
-- It allows people to watch film clips on devices that Youtube does not allow
them to be watched on
-- It allows recording of clips that Youtube does not allow recorded
- The above are all things that:
-- Google must take immediate action to prevent, or face big trouble from
content providers.
-- Most customers would be happy to have.
I therefore conclude that Microsoft's plan is to make Google look like the bad
guys. (Google has no choice but to take immediate legal action). I expect, in
the near future:
- A number of articles, describing how Google are selling out the customer for
the content provider
- Claims that Microsoft is more aligned with customer interests than Google
- A relatively quick replacement of the Windows Phone Youtube app with a
purposefully buggy replacement (which may well have been written already), with
the claim that the bugs are due to Googles' advertising API
--------------
In short; I think that this is a ploy to both ruin Google's good name and polish
Microsoft's brand.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
