Moderators: This page reads suspiciously like an advertisement.

This article has been cut to the point that, as noted by someone above, it looks like an ad. Much of the pertinent, encyclopedic information has been removed as have the links establishing notability. JesseMSmith (talk) 04:17, 9 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Memorandum Opinion

edit

I added a link to the Memorandum Opinion in the antitrust case. The 86-page memo includes a good description of the market for tax preparation software, the deals between the IRS and the commercial companies, and the free filing issues.

According to the memo, TaxACT was aggressively competing for the market by offering a free product, which made it hard for HRB to maintain its prices. One of the strategic goals of the IRS was to have taxpayers file online, and free filing would work towards that goal, but HRB and other companies were tying to prevent that because they wanted to continue to sell a paid product. --Nbauman (talk) 23:35, 9 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
