RE: Peoples feelings to MSN 7.5 stealing plus features
I don't think they stole MsgPlus' custom sounds feature at all. MSN Messenger's implementation is obviously very different, which was very likely done purposely.
All it is is a quick recording taken from your mic sent to the other person, it's not stored, not reusable, there's no such thing as packs, etc.
And traxor, it's not "an outrage", MSN Messenger is still Microsoft's product and if they wanted they could put every single feature from MsgPlus into it and there would be nothing Patchou could do about it.
Anyway, I love this build. I've been using 6.2 for the last few months because 7.0 lagged the hell out of my PC (especially when scrolling the contact list), but this one runs nice and smoothly.
I think that the developers thought one day "well, we've got all the p2p stuff set up, we could easily use it to make so-and-so feature, why don't we do it for the hell of it?".
The previous sentence is false. The following sentence is true. |
