Microsoft Rebrands SkyDrive As OneDrive After Losing Trademark Battle

You know what product has a really good name? SkyDrive. It's clean, unique, and it conjures up the image of what it does – cloud storage. Well, now it's OneDrive, because everything is One-something now. It's not entirely Microsoft's fault, though – it's a trademark thing.

This move became necessary after UK broadcaster BSkyB took Microsoft to court over use of the word 'sky,' which it has a trademark on across Europe.
