Microsoft does not use the name SkyDrive in Europe

After the trouble with the name Metro, American software firms continue to "meet" with online storage service SkyDrive.

SkyDrive violates the brand name in Europe.

A court in the United Kingdom released Microsoft's SkyDrive product infringement of the trademark owned by the British British Broadcasting Group under the name Sky.

According to The Verge , the ruling is in effect throughout the European Union and may force Microsoft to stop using the name. Judges claim that the name of cloud storage service is confusing with Sky's broadband service.

If you don't want to stop providing services under the old name, Microsoft will have to make an agreement with Sky British Broadcasting and accept compensation and brand fees. However, Microsoft has no tradition of being so humble. A similar problem with the Metro touch interface with Metro AG retailer, the company instead of arranging the deal made a decision to change the name ( now Modern UI ).

However, even if you agree to pay, Microsoft is hard to achieve. The unreserved Sky British Broadcasting station also offers a cloud service through the name Sky Store & Share that allows customers to download and store files and images as well as information search schedules.

Microsoft has not made a decision on the resolution of this case.
