Why Pay For Microsoft Office?


Social Media


We all desire to make money, but how is it that multi-million dollar companies, such as Microsoft can produce fresh software applications practically every year for their Office Suite programs and make it egregious for someone to purchase a computer without spending a fortune on their products?  Almost everyone has to purchase a new computer for their home every seven years, but unlike before, your new PC may not include the standard software, which you may have been use to in the past. 

After purchasing your brand new device, you are confronted with trial software and once the 30 day trial period has expired, you are subsequently forced to purchase the software, which is extremely bias.  I don’t feel that they should dangle a program before your face and then take it away just in order to make an extra buck.  I feel that every computer manufacturer should have to supply their consumers with the latest version already downloaded on their system when they purchase their computer from retailers. 

Computer distributors receive a huge discount for bulk sales, so they could include Office with the sale with no difficulty if they really wanted to.  Also, it seems that after you have purchased your software package, upgrading your Microsoft program should not be so costly, but this is another method to rake in the dough.  Thousands of individuals would like the opportunity to purchase an upgrade, but the price is excessively outrageous to do so.  There should be a price cap on things such as these and businesses should not be allowed to increase cost, just to make ridiculous profits. 

When profitable companies like Microsoft currently make millions, it leaves room for selective consumers to save money on their products.  If a person is already a customer, they should receive discounts, but that is not the case.  Dedicated customers do not receive reasonable discounts.  Actually, the discounts that they do receive can be received by anyone with just a little research on the internet.  Reality is, I am to the point that I am going to stop purchasing Microsoft’s products and go on an individual protest. 

No company, I don’t care how large it is, should do this to their consumers.  Customers are what keep them in business, but unfortunately all companies do this.  Anyway to make a dollar, is what some companies believe.  Eventually, though, people will not participate and use another product of theirs’, as soon as they’re fed up paying dollar after dollar.  Just like me, people get tired of throwing their money away. 

After much research on the internet, most people look to boot-leg activation keys to get a copy of Microsoft Office, they wouldn’t dare to contribute to their earnings.  When I was browsing through the internet, I couldn’t fathom the amount of websites that offered the free key gens.  Therefore, hundreds of consumers feel the same way I do and like me will not pay for upgrades or the Office program alone. I’m just venting here but do you see my point?
