which is fine until Microsoft ties in future software upgrades to the app

E.g. just like they did with the Windows 8.0 to 8.1 upgrade.





It's been a while but I'm near certain that they did not require a
microsoft
account to download the 8.1 update - you just had to use their sucky
application to start the process
