Re: [Audacity-devel] Open-source WMA, thanks to RealNetworks?

[Vaughan J. <va...@au...>]

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Dominic. Looks like a federal 
court (in San Jose) finally made a decision that benefits users (& Real) 
rather than Microsoft. Yay!

I just recently got a rebate voucher for an anti-trust suit that 
California brought against Microsoft. The case was settled in 2003, and 
the court notified me in November 2003 I'd be getting the voucher, but 
Microsoft appealed and fought it for almost another 3 years, to delay, 
and try to forgo, paying up per the court's decision.
