EA is NOT under Microsoft's control! '''EA is it's own company. EA owns Maxis, PopCap, and several of your other favorite game designers! EA is just as bad as Microsoft. '''

If anything, '''EA should own MICROSOFT. '''

You would be surprised what people resort to when they boycott games.

Like I said: A COMPANY EXISTS TO MAKE MONEY! If they were to abandon minecraft and turn it into a Cashcow, then people would stop playing. When the people stop playing, there isnt too much for a company to do other than to take a risk and make a commercial, WHICH MIGHT RESULT IN FAILURE, THUS THE COMPANY WILL BURN AND DIE.
