- Microsoft is losing the battle to protect license lucre. It better get used to the feeling
Microsoft lost a UK Court of Appeals case attempting to block resellers from redistributing on-prem Office and Windows licenses. The court ruled that software buyers can resell licenses under European law, rejecting Microsoft's argument that icons and help files qualify for copyright protection. This decision threatens Microsoft's revenue and could result in billions in damages.
