Jim;
I remember the slogan, “Free for Raleigh coupons”! You had to buy a pack of Raleigh cigarettes to get one coupon, and when you had enough coupons you could get a “free gift”. Smoke more and enjoy the “free gifts”.
I can see Microsoft giving away free whatever. The term, “What’s in it for me”? comes to mind. How about “business plan”? Or return on investment (ROI)?
One pizza equals $$$ for Microsoft. And the person enjoying the “free pizza” is eating junk food and being taken for a ride. :)
A bit of greed or freeloading must be at work here.
Tom
