Everything is turning into disgusting subscription services. Most recently I saw home printers that required a monthly subscription service in order to print.

So, how long before Windows is a subscription? They have already brought ads into Windows.

Yes, I think I’ll sign up for the…hm, the “Casual Gamer” tier, which allows 2 hours per week of gaming. Although I could always watch an ad to unlock 30 more minutes.

    I wonder about this but I don’t think it fits their current model too well because Windows is the vehicle for the other subscriptions like Office, GamePass, Azure, etc.

    But this can always change. It might be a while.
