Do you like skype or MSN live ? and why?
k.digennaro
Well honestly Ive never used MSN live just because i was introduced to Skype first, and never had any problems with it. I don't use it on a daily basis but probally a couple times a month when my dads out of the state/country or if i need to make a call over seas for what ever reason. I want to start using it religiousally It could save a ton of money on my phone bill lol. Skype to me seems more like a telephone service. Where as MSN to me is more of an okay let me catch up with my buddies. Just my opinion, I think you'll find that the most people use one or the other. So of course they will favor the one they use.
As for me I'm gona download MSN and get it out smile.gif.

I'm using msn since 6 years and I've allready tried skype, it's better for matching people and msn is better for discussing with friends.

Skype is alrite but not really for me. Personally for overseas talking my preferences go Ventrilo then MSN

I've been using msn since version 2 or 3, so i'm going to have to vote for that.

Skype is of no use to me.

Very big popularity for as MSN, surprising!
I really enjoy making voice and video chat on Skype, and i also enjoy writing in text and sending short voice clips using MSN.

(ticked "I like both")

I like skype because the voice calls take way less resources on my comp and the quality of voice is better. I always speak wiith a friend while doing something on my pc. I have MSN also, but oly because some of my friends dont use skype and I cant contact them without it. I really hate msn message pop ups during online games. >.< Also, I hate when ppl send complex smilies and formatted font. It's annoying. I prefer skype text chat because it's simple and does everything I need. It sends the message to my friend. Period. I need nothing more. I also use IRC so I kinda like the simple and non-formatted chat.

Also, I chat only if I have something to say. At least in my opinion, in my country MSN has the kind of reputation that some young ppl only MSN all day long (yes, I used it as a verb) without actually saying anything. I had to make a new MSN address because I hated that 5 people sent me "Hello" when I booted my PC, and when I asked if they had anything to say, the answer was "no, I just wanted to say hello". It's stupid to say hello everytime when someone comes online after PC restart or anything. I understand that friends say hello when they actually see each other, but MSN? I don't get it. Now, I have only shared my new address with people who actually mean something when they MSN with me.

I know many of you disagree with mee totally. This was only my opinion, feel free to rant and comment. smile.gif
