Of course it will vary per consumer.

Cases where this might happen:

- buying Office or having a personal/family Office 365 subscription

- XBox gaming / entertainment

- buying (other) software or devices from Microsoft

Less common might be using Microsoft for laptop movie purchases. And once upon a time the XBox Music / Groove was actually a really nice service for the price. Not sure if that still exists or what name it has now? (Edit: Looks like it's sort of still around, but evolving - https://www.windowscentral.com/goodbye-groove-music-new-medi... )

I also used to have a Windows Phone, but... that is NOT COMMON. Ha!
