And it looks like a big one. An EU court denied Microsoft’s attempt to have sanctions suspended, and ordered it to:
1. Unbundle Windows Media Player (at least in European markets)
2. Disclose info on its proprietary server-side protocols
3. Pay USD 613 million in fines
Microsoft says it won’t appeal. They’ll publish interopterability info soon, and unbundle Windows Media Player by January.
You can read the entire decision, or read the BBC article.
