That sounds like a spam e-mail, and if I received one such e-mail, would not reply to it, the best thing is to bin it. MSN will not get rid of MSN Messenger, that seems absurd, when so many people use it.

They would have to give people plenty of notice if they were going to start charging people for the use of their software, but £5.- per month is pretty steep in my view, as many people do not have a lot of money and use such software as a means of communication, keeping in touch with friends and family. £.5- per year is not so bad though, but from what I read that was supposed to be per month, how utterly ridiculous.

If there were to be any changes, we would all hear about it from MSN and with plenty of warning, I would think.
