I would add more info to having Windows Azure Trial subscription:

  1. Yes you need a Windows Live account and Credit to verify your Identity only.
  2. You will not be charged to your Credit Card for this trial account as long as you have set your account under spending limit.
  3. Windows Azure Trial account is set to cost ZERO and that is assured by not letting your cross the account usage limit by setting the spending limit enabled. Spending limits are described here: https://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/pricing/spending-limits/
  4. Having spending limit enabled means, if you exceed your limited resources quota your account will be disabled for that month because resources are provided monthly basis.
  5. At the end of your trial or during the trial period you have ability to move to regular subscription and then your credit card will be charged for regular subscription account.
  6. IF you decided to get regular Windows Azure account you will be given a new When new subscription which will incur charges as your usage

So the bottom line is yes you need Credit card to provide the proof of your identity however while using your Windows Azure Trial account you will not be charged at all. Once you setup your Spending Limit so you can sleep tension free in night for any charges to your credit card.
