Microsoft wants to be the provider of all of your cloud services, from webmail (Outlook) to storage (SkyDrive), aiming for the same market as cloud services from competitors like Google and Apple. The new product has a lot of fans, including Josh. Well, Josh was a big fan until Microsoft abruptly locked him out of his account and won’t tell him why.
He isn’t just locked out of his e-mail account and work files. It’s even worse: he’s locked out of his Windows Live games account
 
I'd read somewhere that they were doing this to those accounts being used on pirated Windows 8.
 
lol. microsoft has been long known to suspend accounts for nude media content in skydrive.
there could be any of the several reasons though.
