One of the key issues for me purchasing on the Windows Store is that my purchases my disappear at any moment. I have had half of my purchased apps disappear.

And it is next to impossible to get a refund.

Last week I noticed that my purchased music on Groove has disappeared ahead of the end of year termination of service.

This sort of happened to us at our work - a developer pulled an app from the store and we needed to install it on other machines internally, but there was no way to do so without going through the store. So it left us totally screwed after paying licensing fees.
