In that last announcement talk alone together with the follow-up Q & A there are numerous "subtle" bits of marketing. The entire general trend is one of attempting to turn a product (software) into a service. That is an anti-consumer nickle-and-dime model which is just as anti-consumer as trying to trick people that can't afford something into making payments. It is just as anti-consumer as many other related things occurring in the software industry nowadays--microtransactions being one of them.
I bet MS investors would think differently. Is there another option available to them than services? -- Brian Wood Ebenezer Enterprises -- so far G-d has helped us. http://webEbenezer.net
