    One to laugh about, seriously couldn't MS claims be more ironic?

    Microsoft would be negligent if it didn't see Apple's music ambitions as a competitive threat. On the eve of Apple's splashy launch last week, Microsoft offered a Q&A which warned users not to be seduced by iTunes, Apple's integrated MP3 player/ripper/burner/radio/music store, which is now available on Windows.

    AAAAAAAAhahahahaha, Aaahahahaha, ahem. Well, I guess they do have a few points, unfortunately those points can also be levelled right back at Microsoft with a simple "Find & "Replace".

    i do agree that is ironic that microsoft is saying that apple is a monopoly (hahahaha). still, even though microsoft is guilty of monopolistic practices, if (and i mean if) apple is committing uncompetitive business practices, then they are trying to become a monopoly (even if it is outrageous coming from microsoft).
