Sports I lustraded

Electronic Arts plays hardball | CNET News.com reports.

"It's downright predatory," said Wedbush Morgan Securities analyst Michael Pachter. "There's nothing illegal or unethical about what's EA's doing; it's just good business for them. They're making sure they have exclusive access to the best middleware out there and the best sports license out there, and they're precluding anyone else from taking out Ubisoft. Microsoft did the same kind of things to improve its position."

I guess it's only fair, sports has become pretty predatory and it is big business. Microsoft never did really get into any trouble with their antics and their customers never really seemed to care either. I think it will be the same with sports fanatics.
