There are plenty of inexpensive ways to get cheap - not free - email. Since nothing is free, the send about 1 email every week or so in my mailbox it seems. I don't know that I am really getting spammed to bad and only use my hotmail account as a "freebie" email when I sign up for stuff online that I don't want to use one of my good ones.
I can't say that I am bothered since I don't expect Microsoft to provide a useful service without any attempts to benefit from it. Heck - I don't really blame them and think that they don't abuse their power in this case.
