This time, during my “competition surfing sessions”, I was fortunate enough to come across the original order of the European Commission Regulation on the approval of the Microsoft-Skype Merger. While there is nothing controversial about the Order itself, it is an interesting read, especially on the classification and sub-classification of the relevant market by the EC.
The merger garnered much attention after CISCO challenged the Merger in the EU after it received the approval of the European Commission.
