There are legal ways to do this -- I used to do it when I had my Tech Support business. Businesses that build systems can set up a reseller account with Microsoft where they buy keys for their customers. You have to provide the customer information for each key in order to prevent someone from getting a lot of keys and just reselling them on the open market.

The pricing is volume based and the the cost per key is pretty high (but less than MSRP) for small business which do not usually sell enough software to get a price break...
