After a decade on the market, Microsoft has announced a significant price increase to Office 365. The changes only effect commercial licensing at this point, but I would expect other offerings to increase as well. Beyond the obvious argument that prices have remained the same for ten years, they are touting the continuous innovation over the past decade to justify this boost. You have to hand it to them; they have been creative recently with feature additions to the products to provide more value to the customer.
