Microsoft revamped the music subscription program offered with its Zune players to allow customers to keep up to 10 tracks per month, even if they later cancel the deal.
This was the only reason I used Zune music back in the day. Then they discontinued this feature but I had windows phone so Xbox music wasn’t bad. Plus they had these promos where I was able to get several years of service for extremely cheap. Then they shutdown the service all together but offered existing subscribers a refund in the form of Microsoft store credit. They gave me fill value of all the years of service so I bought of Surface Pro with an extended warranty. Then that died and they refused to honor the warranty as they dragged on my complaint until the warranty expired and didn’t resolve the issue, ultimately claiming I’m not under warranty.

I’m quite removed from Microsoft products now…
