Azure price increase

Is there a better explanation on what is going on with this price increase? Its huge and I think the community needs to fully understand it to be able to communicate it with our customers. Here is what I got yesterday.

 


  Microsoft will make price adjustments for Azure in some markets.

 

Azure

 

Microsoft periodically assesses the impact of its local   pricing to ensure there is a reasonable alignment with the needs of   customers, partners, and the marketplace, and may make changes in response to   its assessment and feedback.
 
  Effective August 1, 2015, local prices for Azure and Azure Marketplace in   Swedish kronor will increase by 17% percent to more closely align with prices   in most markets.
 
 
Enterprise   Agreements (EA), Enterprise Subscription Agreements (EAS), or Server and   Cloud Enrollments (SCE)
  Customers or partners who purchased Azure through Enterprise Agreements (EA),   Enterprise Subscription Agreements (EAS), or Server and Cloud Enrollments   (SCE) have price protection on currently offered Azure services and will   receive the better of their baseline price or the new market price. A   customers or partners baseline price is the price at the beginning of their   Azure agreement or the price a new Azure service was made generally   available. New Azure services will be priced at the then-current pricelist   price.
 
 
Microsoft Online   Services Agreement
  Pay-As-You-Go subscriptions offer the   flexibility of no minimum purchases or commitments. Prices under these   subscriptions will increase effective August 1, 2015. If youre subscribed to   previously offered 6-month or 12-month plans, you have price protection and   will receive the better of the price at the beginning of your subscription   term or the current market price.
 
 
Azure in Open
  Consumption rates will increase effective August 1, 2015.

  Thank you,
