The change to 'Microsoft Azure' was announced 6 days ago http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazure/archive/2014/03/25/upco... beginning 3 days from now.

I'll just shamelessly copy my own tweet about the branding problems of Azure

"It took them too long to understand that the Windows brand is tarnished forever. I propose ditch "Microsoft" too. Just "Azure"."

I think it's more to do about branding consistency. Azure is far more than just 'Windows' now, you have: Media Services, CDN, Mobile Services, Cache, etc.

I get it ... you're not a fan of the branding.

What matters is the product.
