So MS had some issues with the law, back in the day when we still gave a fuck about monopolies, antitrust, and forcing your customers into things. How the FUCK can they get away with the ONLY ways to watch Netflix 1080p/PC being one of two MS-owned products. It's the Win10 app, Edge, or fuck you?

At a friend's place right now, little media server Win 7 PC (laptop) is connected to a 60-inch 1080p TV-but he chose not to upgrade to Win10. So no Netflix app or Edge for us here. Dunno how well this PC would run 10 anyway, its got barely 3GB of RAM. Generally does a damn fine job of playing 1080p video on a bigger screen through it's HDMI though, better than the dusty dead Xbox 360 is managing.

So here we are forced to watch 720p Netflix on a huge screen and it looks like dogshit.

Is this the point where I'm supposed to rush out and buy an Xbox One now?

How is this legal? Not to mention everything else they've been doing, just updating your PC to another OS for you, (incoming) changing or even disabling policies in the Group Policy Editor on everything except the Enterprise Edition (generally unavailable to you and me by any means except piracy, we certainly can't buy it on the Store anyway), the telemetry and lack of ways to configure it in all except Enterprise editions, etc..

Everything they ever tried with Internet Explorer was babysteps compared to this shit.

So why do they get away with it now?

Serious question.
