I do like MSN more then the others however I rarely use it becuase its not as popular as services like AIM...

It's gonna be a bad move to start charging for a IM client with so little market share, I know AOL was talking about charging for AIM a while back and they decided to back off due to the fact it would likely go under if they did so.


Oct. 2006 seems like a LONG way off if theres betas floating around now.

It's amazing how invites can get people excited about Microsoft software, isn't it?
