Note the A300 was the first widebody plane to only use 2 engines, which became the standard. Boeing quickly realized that it needed to play catchup. The 767 was Boeing's response to the A300. It also makes sense that in the decade between the A300 launching and the 767 launching that there was increases in range.
I said it was for premium markets. The 767 is smaller than the A330 and better suited for smaller, premium markets. The A330 was built for mass transit between hubs and to leisure destinations.
