Oddly, they do actually do stuff without the $$ being involved.
While the server was under attack, I got bored and went looking for a 'Mech Commander 2' torrent, which I found, but I also found that MicroSoft actually has the game (and source code as well!) to download for FREE on their web site!
Until the server came back up, I was playing the heck out of MC2, still play it a fair bit.
I reckon if someone actually asked the appropiate people at MS, they might just say, 'sure why not'.... although the chances might be fairly small.
