NO

Microsoft have no plans to charge users for use of Messenger. They have optional premium downloads such as winks available at a cost. But the basic Messenger is free.

Any emails you receive on this matter are simply spam/junk mail/crap therefore don't send it to X amount of contacts.

No this is NOT true. Windows Live Messenger (MSN Messenger) will still remain Free to use.

I would suggest ignoring all those e-mails going around saying Microsoft will will be charging for the use of Messenger. It is totally untrue. Also, these emails have been going around for a few years now. If it was true, don't you think MS would have done it a long time ago?

They already charge for MSN 8. And MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger generates revenue through their ads and premium content - as such, MSN 8, MSN Mesesnger and Windows Live Messenger are for money.

But, for the purpose of not confusing people, MSN Messenger can be used for free. Same with Windows Live Messenger. There is no service fee.

And to be picky, MSN 8 is something you have to pay for. It's also known as MSN Explorer. This is why I have been insisting that we use the correct terminology.
