Bing search engine
In a push to make people switch to its Bing search engine, Microsoft is also paying users in Britain to use Bing over competitors like Google Search.
As part of its "Rewards" scheme, Microsoft will now allow users to earn points for making purchases online and simply searching the web which can then be redeemed for music and movies. The rewards scheme will also be launched in France, Germany and Canada soon.
