RealNetworks files case against Microsoft

SAN FRANCISCO DEC. 19. RealNetworks filed a $1 billion antitrust lawsuit on Thursday accusing Microsoft of using its monopoly power to restrict competition and limit consumer choice in digital media markets.

In a complaint filed in U.S. District Court in San Jose, Calif., RealNetworks, a maker of software for playing digital audio and video content, contends that Microsoft has unfairly damaged its business by linking Windows Media Player to the Windows operating system.
