That's more of a "When in Rome" situation.The competition was doing it, so MSFT had to. MSFT didn't initiate it.

London] Microsoft's online service MSN UK Thursday announced it will offer free access beginning June 8, powered by British Telecom. and the world's largest software player enters the game. Little Paul M better get a big bank account in the unlikely event that Microsoft infringes on any of the patents, cause I say bye bye Paul IF that happens. CY nor anyone for that matter can legally take on Microsoft and win, they maybe right, but they will RUN out of FUNDS.

First FREE internet does not create competition for CY. It's CY's proprietary selective target group hit ability that National advertisers want to spend money for. the British are offering free internet but users still have to pay local telephone time fees and advertisers are still paying for hits to consumer groups that will never need their products. As a shareholder I prefer a company offering free internet and receiving big $$$ from advt revenues than a company offering free internet with a small kickback from the local phone telco. Cy is original and special and is creating an internet ' marketing'revolution.
