That doesn't sound at all right or fair. How much is this skype premium. If it's cheap, and there isn't a monthly fee, I might consider it, but it never used to be that way, and if that's the case, how is it possible that at least 1 person I've talked to who is also using the free version is able to start in contacts like it used to do? I'm not trying to complain or be difficult; am just genuinely puzzled by this. Thanks!

I raised this issue wiht Skype beta team a while ago and I was toldwas that this is by design. If you wish to not have Skype not start at Home, rather your contacts, it's required to purchase Skype Premium.
