After seeing the mess that is the Windows 8 interface, plus all the changes to management tools, the multiple changes in the Office interfaces, I'm not sure that Microsoft listens to many of the users... 🙁
I'm not sure I agree that Microsoft isn't listening. There are plenty of people that love the ribbon interfaces and many that like Win 8. It's a radical change from previous tries, and I like that.
Users get an opinion, and I'm sure there is discord inside Microsoft as to how much that opinion matters, but I have seen changes come from Connect, and I have seen Microsoft implement new features based on user feedback.
