"not a free service any ways still have 2 pay for it don't you
only free when you call other sykpes users
"
that is the reason I use it - free calls to family and friends worldwide, in internet or 'phone  |

If MS marry up the Xbox with Skype you can see how many users MS will reach in addition to the 600m+ current users of Skype they've just acquired.
Put Skype on a HD TV set and you suddenly get powerful applications delivered to your living room in vivid colour.
This is a good move for Microsoft. No doubt about it. |

So it'd going to cost perhaps?
I try not to use MS, my pet hate, but I hate to think that Skype would be subsumed and lost as a free service on phone and web |

Nothing is truly for free in this world. If you've enjoyed Skype for a few years for free then you've had a good run. I can't see how MS can recoup $8.5bn by keeping it free, but then I don't know the intracies of what they're planning to do with it.
An added extra to Xbox users?
Put Skype on a pc tablet and bundle it out for free as an added extra there?
Somehow it has to be sales driven. |

typo in previous post
going on your previous posts on Skype threads I think you don't get something about it!   |
