Wow, how exciting. Microsoft is going to make it easier for businesses to buy in bulk.

Microsoft continues to tweak its volume licensing programs to make it easier for business customers to purchase the company’s software in bulk.

This week, Microsoft said it was reducing the length of three of its volume-licensing agreements between 10 percent to 50 percent, changes that affect the Enterprise Agreement, Enterprise Subscription, Select License, Open Value, Open Value Subscription and Open License volume licensing agreements. Microsoft also has made it easier for customers to navigate license information and sign up online, the company said. The changes will be implemented in the course of its fiscal year 2008, which began July 1.

Something tells me their doing this for their benefit, not the customers who rely on volume licensing. Then again, if Microsoft was in it to make the customers happy, we never would have seen Windows ME, would we?
