"SkyDrive" to change name because of "Sky" trademark

Microsoft forced to rename SkyDrive following trademark case with broadcaster | The Verge

"A UK court recently ruled that Microsoft's SkyDrive name infringed on a trademark owned by British Sky Broadcasting Group (BSkyB), and the software maker has agreed to change the name of its cloud-based service worldwide as a result."

After "Metro", this is a second case where Microsoft is forced to change product name because of trademarks.
