While not the best strategy in my opinion, Messenger and Spaces are free, and MS is just trying to make a little money to keep those services running.

That's going too far, IMO... we shouldn't have to look at crappy advertisements in the most-used window of the program... :dodgy:

Why do you think they're there?
Anyway, they've been there since an early beta.
And there are already patches to hide it all. Just look around.

i dont want their to be ads. Those are annoying. They should find other way to make money. Bill gates has enough to share.
