As an Office 365 Home user, I would love to take advantage of Power BI - and would even be prepared to pay a subscription fee to access it.

We could use the same personal account to connect PBI to our OneDrive. No need a work email to have an account, just our regular MS account. Why Microsoft has made it so complicated for individuals ? I have personal needs as a self employed to analytics from my excel data.

I agree. I have had to sign up separately to Power BI - it is not the fee that is the issue it is the want of a single invoice and a single sign-in.

I have Office 365 Home and a Microsoft account. This same Microsoft account is linked to Azure where I am trying to test Power BI in the cloud

Why can I not connect it up, given that I would have been paying Azure subscription fees.

I have two purposes - I want to test run cloud analytics for myself as I'm always exploring new technologies but I also cannot make a business case to my company that we should look at this when I cannot show what I have done and demonstrate that it would be beneficial.
