NineMSN is a 50/50 joint venture between Microsoft and Publishing and Broadcasting Limited (PBL) . It effectively acts as the website for both the Nine Network and MSN. It is one of Australia's most popular websites, although its poor compatibility with the Mozilla Firefox browser means many Firefox users do not use the website as often as Internet Explorer users.
The venture was established in 1997, with a combined investment of $50 million, which brought together all the online assets of Microsoft and all the media assets of PBL, which include the Nine Network, Australian Consolidated Press (ACP) and other PBL assets.
