Maybe... but sometimes you have to question that, wether they might have something bigger in mind.

Because MSN Messenger pwns all the other Messengers lol..

There has been many a few topics about this before on ths forums..  personally i think they could make us pay, and they will if they want to. Im not saying i would pay for the service but i know a few people that would. However its true that as Cookie said it wouldn't be a very good business move.

Basically, enjoy MSN Messenger now and everyday and be glad that its free! :)

RE: Microsoft Plans More Im Options
I was watching some computer tv show, and they did talk about how microsoft was going to start making users pay for things, it was something about msn9 or something *-)...but cookies right. They wont start making us pay for things such as msn because there are many other instant messaging services out there, like aol and yahoo which are equally popular or more than microsofts msn. If they did make their users start paying for msn messenger that would be a really stupid move, probably most of the users that use msn are kids (bias opinion...) and their parents probably dont want them talking on msn all day so why would they pay for that? My mom doesnt like us sitting on the computer a lot, and i know some of yours dont either.  They would lose a bunch of their customers. Anyways, carry on.
