MICROSOFT PLANS IPOD RIVAL

MICROSOFT PLANS IPOD RIVAL

·     The shift is likely to anger Samsung, Sony, Creative Technology and other manufactures that were persuaded to use Microsoft's software in their devices, because a Microsoft player would complete with theirs.

This is what happened when

·     IBM / Apple / Company tried to "bypass" their long established declare network and started selling computers directly from their website (to save 15% dealer communication)

·     GM tried to sell cars on its website bypassing dealer network.

·     There was so much opposition from dealers in both cases that the move had to be dropped / withdrawn.

·     Microsoft was only licensing its software to Samsung, Sony, creative. They are NOT Microsoft's dealers. Even then, Microsoft will now become a competitor!

·     This is why, after 6 months, we will either shut down India Recruiter Or Stop further "Registration".

·     We cannot be competition with our own partner websites!
