Just skimmed through the video, but I don't think that would be legal (bypassing registration checks in general).

Go pirate your way into court. Unless you get it from a promotion, it's definitely considered illegal.

Lots of people do. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to be sold by Microsoft at all. Although OpenOffice > MS Office.

Even if you get caught, how do you get into court?
Outside the US, A US corporation like Microsoft will be hitting air like crazy, trying to fine and arrest others outside the country.
