MICROSOFT CORPORATION V. COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
1. Would Microsoft have been ordered to provide the interconnection instructions if it had only a
40 percent market share in operating systems?
Answer: Possibly not. The Commission concluded that Microsoft had had a dominant position in
client PC operating systems since 1996 given that its market share exceeded 90 percent, and
there were significant barriers to entry that prevented potential competitors from effectively
entering the marketplace. The Commission concluded that Microsoft maintained a dominant
position in the workgroup server operating system market as it maintained a 60 percent market
share (no other competitor had more than a 25 percent market share), and there were close
commercial and technological links between the PC and workgroup markets.
These dominant positions were coupled with Microsoft’s refusal to disclose information to its
competitors relating to interoperability in the software industry (a particularly important topic
in the EU) and the use of Microsoft’s power in the client PC operating systems market to
eliminate competition in the related work group server operating systems market.
2. If Apple were to obtain a larger market share in the future, would there be a basis for relieving
Microsoft of this judgment?
Answer: Possibly. However, this would depend on the market structure at the time and the
presence or absence of abuse of dominant market positions.
3. This order prohibits Microsoft from giving a program away when a computer is purchased. Why?
Answer: The Court concluded that the Commission properly found that the Windows Media
Player reached a large majority of client PC users, and that the transmission of content and
application compatible with a given media player was a significant competitive factor given its
impact on the popularity of that media player. Microsoft’s Media Player enjoyed market
dominance given its bundling with the Windows client PC operating system, a market in which
Microsoft was abusing its dominant position.
AIRTOURS V. COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
1. Does the order prevent Airtours from entering into mergers in the future with companies that
have a smaller share of the U.K. market?
Answer: No.
2. If Airtours proposed a merger with another firm with a very large share of the German market but
no share of the U.K. market, how would the merger be treated based on this opinion?
