: Why do we not see this level of outrage directed against Bill Gates and
Microsoft?

We do. They're on trial at the moment, in case you hadn't noticed.

: Divx is merely a business venture where they tried to protect
their own interests with exclusivity agreements, which is nothing new in
the business world.

It's not "merely" a business venture trying to protect its own interests--it deliberately set out to deny users the freedom of choice they currently enjoy with other entertainment media. A freedom of choice you profess to champion. And they're simply paying the price for it. I for one will not weep for them.
