LEACHES!!! I don't think so. Leaches are those that take without providing anything in return. Hardly what MSFT does. The true leaches of society are those that loot the successful in order to provide for the unproductive.

Whether you think the software is good or bad is irrelevant. The marketplace thinks it provides a fair result for the price. In the event you don't like it, you are free to go elsewhere, or develop your own.

And don't tell me there isn't any choice. There are thousands of programmers in this world. And with the availability of the Internet, any better mousetrap has a great chance of succeeding. If you tear down MSFT, you take away the incentive for the next guy to spend the effort and time.
