Today I check out the Microsoft store and discover that trying to install open source software will instead lead to ridiculous scams selling Open Office, FFMPEG, Audacity and other software for huge prices.

While in some cases it is legal to resell GPL software, you should never pay for lazilly repacked software, some of which apparently doesn't even work. I have to wonder why Microsoft doesn't do more to prevent this theft.
