They have shipped a lot in the past years and its already a very good value proposition for business. I think a few dollars increase isnt crazy but it shouldnt be across the board since they havent provided anything to average users except ai all the non ai improvements have been in the business space. I hope it keeps going up because I'd like to be able to make the case for switching off windows.

For individual its already way to expensive for what it provides. Microsoft hates their users.

My mother, who used Office software her whole working life recently asked me, un-prompted to help her switch to something else. She was tired of the always online, always signed in obnoxiousness of Office 365. She was tired of looking for stuff in Onedrive. And the software had changed so much over the years, that she figured learning a new office suite wouldn't be any extra effort.
