Well, the disc formats are worth nothing to M$, from their point of view it's only another format for piracy and everything distributed on them is just an additional cost.
DD would be much better and profitable option for them, since with driving their own standards to DD would allow them to have "control" over the content, in similar fashion the disc tech owners have over the discs (license fees).
Anyway, first the internet caused the number of home computers to explode and now its slowly eating away M$:s foothold. Currently M$ is surrounded with potential disruptors. With DD, they could sell operating systems to multimedia PC:s and position themselves better on the internet scheme.
