I remember when they killed their Games For Windows store and the games I’d bought on there just went poof. Never trust Microsoft to keep a digital storefront around, they’ll delete it all at the drop of a hat.
Remember when Microsoft was telling shareholders that the Xbox multimedia ecosystem was going to dominate living rooms everywhere, then people stopped hanging out in their living rooms?
Imagine having a living room
You guys have rooms?
If you think about it: Microsoft owns XBox, that has been one of the three major consoles for decades now. They own Windows, the world’s most popular operating system. They own Edge, one of the major browsers. And they still failed to create a movie and TV store and shut down their music streaming service. Which is totally insane - that shit was bundled with fucking windows and Xbox and they still made it suck so hard that it failed
I can see Microsoft just being the Azure company at this rate. Then they’ll have to charge what it costs to run and a lot of companies will wish they had stayed cloud agnostic.
Azure is tiny compared to the competition.
363 is much more successful comparatively. That said, its dying fast, with the utter garbage service upgrades, its enshitified hard into a rigid platform unsuitable for enterprises. So find/make a real alternative to EXO with the Outlook app: and 365 ends over night.
Nothing about O365 is “dying”. There simply isn’t a replacement for it.
