      The form Microsoft created for account creation predictably does not work. 

      The wizard / dialog first complains about the fact that another Microsoft account is already using that email address. When I choose Create account anyway en then next the buttons are disable en grey and nothing happens.

      When use developer tools in IE or FireFox I see an error message. Some Javascript is missing.

      So there is bug in the Microsoft code for account creation which prevents me from downloading and using Minecraft. I don't want to pay another 30 euro or so.

      On the Mojang site I also can no longer change my email address so that basically leaves me between a rock and a hard place.

      The easiest solution is I think if I can change my email address on the Mojang site so that I can create an account with an email address that MS does not have.

      Is that possible?
