Get a clue what you get for $20 and then come back and tell us how we can get all that's included for free. Keep in mind most people don't live under a rock and have to be able to share files with work and the rest of the world and need 100% compatibility with these apps.
Yeah I can see that for storage, and if you're just doing it for that then the office is free. This deal is for a single user though and not a family plan. I was too focused on office with my reply.
12 months of Personal can convert to 9 months of Family for people that already have Family $3.33/mo is a great deal for family. I create dummy accounts and share the folder with my primary account so I have 6TB storage. $3.33 / mo is dirt cheap for that much storage. Compare it to Google One storage prices, which does not have a 1tb plan but is $10 per mo for 2TB - though they may have deals which I am unware of .
While I do not use it primarily for Office , MS Office and Google/Open Office are not the same. I would prefer MS Office and I consider it a bonus.

Correct, this is to be expected.
I bought 2 15-month keys, but when I try to redeem them on my family subscription, Microsoft tells me that they will be pro-rated based on a 12-month personal key. I'm now back to support to check if I was sent the correct keys or if personal keys used on family accounts will always fall back to 12 months and 9 months prorated. Attachment 16114797

Waste of money, people should rather spend LESS and get the 2021 lifetime versions....
show me where to get the 2021 lifetime for less than $30. full office. not student teacher version. not just word or excel. real retail version. not some $3 unoffical licenses

There's probably also another group that get it for work compatibility reasons.
If someone doesn't fall into one of those two categories, then yes, free versions make sense.

I actually have some time so figure I might as well see if there is a combo deal with Nordvpn soon
