I'm more inclined to blame the labels than Microsoft for the country-by-country variation. I'm actually surprised that ANY labels allow subscriptions, it's hard to see how they make money in that process, especially given their historic myopia.
I also think Microsoft treads very carefully in the legal waters these days. After their US and EU legal woes, I think they've pulled back significantly on the agressive behavior that got them into trouble in the first place. Do't forget, they just settled the last issue with the European Commission in December of 2009 so it's all still fresh in their mind.
