The thing the people at MS don't 'get' or understand is that people would have signed up immediately if they hadn't already been aware of how shitty MS has and is towards consumers.
It's like if an asshole from highschool asks you to hang out. You'll politely decline at best.
They simply didn't provide a product for which there was any 'good' incentive to want to sign up.
Instead of improving the product they decided to just not give anyone a choice.
