I know this is a dead-rez thread, but in my experience, direct connection is used quite a lot these days - basically, any time you don't get that little "Experiencing a slow connection?" message you're directly connected.

If it can't connect you directly then it will fallback to the MSNP2P protocol.

Although, there is an option buried somewhere that you can force MSN to disable direct connections and use the old protocol again.
