E. Fight Piracy
Economists have made assertions that the price for Windows is greater than the competitive price. What price should Microsoft charge for their product? As a company that has a near monopoly, they should lower its price in order to combat piracy. Many people feel that Microsoft products are overpriced and that is why some people have chose to pirate the software instead of purchasing it. If more people decide to purchase their software at the new lower price that should help the company's revenue overall considering the amount of piracy that is occurring today.
Microsoft needs to work closely with different governments and develop policies that will restricts piracy and severely punish anyone who profits from piracy.
As the market for software product has grown and as pirates have become increasingly sophisticated technologically, there has been a dramatic increase in the instances and variety of forms in which software have been pirated. In response, Microsoft should develop an anti-piracy program aimed at combating piracy of software industry in all its forms in the US, around the world and on the Internet. The program's anti-piracy activities fall into the following principal areas.
Anti-Piracy Training
In an effort to combat global trafficking in pirated software, Microsoft conducts training seminars for enforcement officials around the world.
Internet Piracy
Microsoft Online Program monitors the Internet (websites, FTP sites, newsgroups, IRC channels, chat rooms, forums, etc.) for instances of piracy of its products and notifies ISPs of the presence of infringing product on sites which they are hosting.
