Mon: 12-month Microsoft 365 Family for $100 w/FREE $50 Amazon GC

Microsoft and Amazon have teamed up together for a bundle deal. For $100, you get a 1-Year Microsoft 365 Family subscription with a bonus FREE $50 Amazon gift card. This is for the first year. The Microsoft (MSFT) 365 Family subscription will auto-renew in the future if you don’t manually cancel it. You only receive the bonus $50 Amazon gift card now. You won’t receive it with future renewals.

The $50 Amazon gift card will arrive in a mini envelope. The MSFT 365 Family subscription includes up to six persons/accounts. Each person/account gets a 1TB OneDrive of their own.

If you have more than six members in your Family, I’m afraid it’s time to say goodbye to Little Jimmy 😉 If you have fewer than six members, you can always use more than one account for yourself if you need it for photo storage/backup. You just need to use a different Microsoft account for it.

Refunds are coming in July: all Microsoft ebook purchases

Trigger warning for Zune fans!

Microsoft has one more time decided to kill a previously-launched media store. This time they decided to kill their ill-conceived e-book store. All ebooks purchased (including the free ones) will disappear in July 2019. Until then, you can access them with the Edge browser.

The refunds should happen automatically in July to your original payment method IF that payment method can accept refunds (eg credit or debit cards). IF your original payment method cannot accept refunds (gift card, expired/cancelled card, etc), you will receive a Microsoft online store credit).

And IF you left any notes/annotations in any of their ebooks prior to today, you will receive a “bonus” $25 Microsoft store credit.

More details at the MSFT FaQ, via the The Verge…

PS: at this point, when should we expect the Microsoft App store to shutdown? 🙂
