Hi
I am currently writing my master thesis in competition law on network effects and computer software. If any one knows of good general articles concerning software compatibility, Microsoft's (and other software companies') market strategies, innovation in the software market and so on, I would greatly appreciate a reference or link. Personal input on the subject will also be of value.
I've been subscribing to this list for about a year and it seemed to me a good place to make such an request. I apologize if I am off topic and flooding your email.
Regards Bjørn Olai Bye
Hi Bjørn,
I am currently writing my master thesis in competition law on network effects and computer software.
This looks like an interesting theme. I have a plan to work on a similar theme - market failure in the case of information goods, software and network effects.
I'm not a postgraduate student (yet) and I'm thinking on doing this on my on - just something to work on for the summer.
Anyway I'm at the beginning, so maybe we can share some ideas and information?
Cheers, Novica
