I'm sure that Google will be happy to do that when Microsoft starts being nice to them - e.g., not extorting money from every Android phone maker.

It's taken more than 20 years, but Microsoft is finally reaping the fruits of their bullying.

an eye for an eye doesnt make the world better my friend. Android wars are making users pay more and this youtube war is also making users suffer.

I disagree that google rolling over and let Microsoft continue their abuse and bad citizenry would have been a better outcome (except for Microsoft and WP8 owners, of course)

An eye for an eye is a bit extreme, but fear of retaliation is an important component of balanced societies; see e.g. The cold war or the Stanford prison experiment. It's time Microsoft start behaving less like.a psychopath bully and more like a member of society.
