I once had a valid office key... But since I reset my computer to often the amount of "free activations" was used up... There where so many hoops to jump through to re-activate it that it was easier to get a cracked key to activate my office version... That's just sick

That kind of related: when mostly single use software works off of a subscription model versus just being available for purchase.

Jep I hate the, "you don't own anything anymore" mentality... There are some valid reasons to actually provide a subscription, but most of the times it should just be a one time payment
