Comment

Though I agree with the general comment on the article, I have just ONE specific comment re: "What is so great about Skype"

Just use it and listen... on a broadband connection the quality is unlike anything I've ever heard, yes that includes regular telephone...

Now compare that to ICQ/MSN etc. and you'll know what's so great about skype.

That said, they did NOT implement their own codecs, so there's other's with similar quality.
