  • Redmond has never under the fundamental aspect of online businesses

    And that is, the 'customer' isn't locked into a vendor on the client end of the business. This is why every foray into online businesses for Redmond ends poorly for them.

No one wants an online business model that relies on WGA checking to see if you've licensed the right products from Microsoft first.
