It's actually not that popular in Microsoft projects either. Even Microsoft itself doesn't really use them, their recent open source projects mostly use the Apache license.

No, you can't even load the website outside of US: "We're sorry. Google Music is currently only available in the United States"
The majority of people, in general, are not as stupid as you may think (usually only about a third of them).
Looking at currently established direct 100% democracies, most of them:
* agree (democratically) to limit their own rights to put human rights on top (other than say the US that doesn't really care about them)
* often priorize education very highly (as opposed to e.g. military expenses)
* are politically very stable (middle ground, instead of back and forth between extreme positions)
* are economically very stable (even these days)
* have almost no strikes
* sometimes even agree to increase taxes (yes, they can essentially vote on how much taxes they want to pay)
* have low unemployment rates
* do not start any wars or threat other countries (seek diplomatic solutions and cooperation instead)

You are of course aware that Microsoft's own VoIP Stack (Communication Server/Lync, Communicator etc) is fully based on SIP and RTP?
Yes, this is indeed what I don't understand: Google Music is about allowing me to upload and stream my music that I bought in my country, hence the copyrighted content is already made available to me in my country. Besides, most of the music I'd upload would be of non-US artists.
I certainly understand how these services work technically, but I do not understand what's the difference in offering such "unlicensed" services in the USA and say Canada or Europe, at least in countries with more liberal copyright laws.
"We're sorry. Music Beta is currently only available in the United States"
Just like Amazon and all the others. Of course, nothing else was to be expected...
Good thing that Google check's every single site's ToS before indexing them and tracking their users in any way (including Google Toolbar, Analytics)
Yes, indeed. Yet you're not always responsible for loosing data on your own machine either (e.g. accidentally deleting vs. theft or fire)
Yeah, nobody ever lost data on their own machines
Microsoft recently filled a patent for a new technology that can add a texture layer to traditional touch screens. One of its uses could be to turn it into braille pad.
Everything published by Wikileaks was redacted by "the press" (NYT etc). Hence yes, it is.
Switzerland has one of the strongest laws and practices against money laundering in place. Knowing where large amount of money comes from is thus essential.
Technically, PostFinance is not a bank (they don't have a banking license).
