Microsoft doesn't need to, AFAIK pirated copy don't get upgrades and genuine HOME copies only work on the first computer they are installed on.
- nine_k 10y agoNote how many people still happily run Win 7, and before that happily ran XP, and before that happily ran win2k — while being very reluctant to upgrade. It's corporations that need upgrades and support. With corporations, I'm sure, MS is not lax and enforces the licensing policy.
