Hi, this is Jes. First, I'm glad that some people on the list see my point, and that my concerns are somewhat valid. Also, keep in mind that Skype is being used by more and more businesses, so if someone is looking for employment in a virtual call center or something, they had better be able to use Skype as well as their co-workers. In this scenario, finding another voip is just not practical.
