I believe that Microsoft are going to prompt people to migrate their Live Messenger details over to Skype.
I prefer Skype, as anyone who's used both will likely agree |

"Which is a pain as I pay to use the Microsoft services wonder if I will get a refund?"
I believe its only the Messenger side that is being closed - all other Microsoft/Windows Live services will remain the same for the foreseeable future, so you should in theory be fine. |

"yahoo stopped their chat rooms years ago for similar reasons"
The yahoo chat rooms are dead?? Not that it matters anymore as I stopped using messenger when:
1) my contacts stopped logging on and only used email
2) the chatrooms got full of bots
3) the only human users were either trying to hack your account if you had a legacy ("rare") username (like mine)
4) were Philipino, Singaporean or Ukranian girls "seeking pen-pals around the world" and "really" wanted to meet you but could not afford to fly over.
5) Americans who actively hated Brits and were ready to descend into 5-year old playground slanging matches - on the basis of what country your profile was from.
So they got rid of the chatrooms as a whole?? Wow. |
