this looks like the ultimate reason to switch to OpenOffice ( and maybe even 
Linux!)

News.com is reporting that Microsoft has confirmed a subscription service is 
in the works for the next consumer version of their Office Suite. "Code-named 
Albany, the product has a single installer that puts Office Home and Student, 
OneCare, as well as a host of Windows Live services, onto a user's PC. As 
long as users keep paying for the subscription, they are entitled to the 
latest versions of the products. Once they stop paying, they lose the right 
to use any version."
