Microsoft Buys Skype For $8.5 Billion, Now What?
I think this was a great buy for Microsoft, but I also like Skype being a separate entity on its’ own. As long as the software giant improves its services for Skype usage and continues to make Skype a better product it should remain as a huge contender. I have been a Skype user for about 5 years and remember when they were the new kind on the block.
This company has changed immensely through the years and have supported them from the start, even when people did not know who Skype was or even what services the offered. There are a few browser quirks that should be debugged, but overall, I give them a good rating, 9 out of 10.
I am curious to whether or not the fee’s will changed for better or for worse. They have been competitive for years and that is one of the reasons they have become a successful company. It should be interesting to find out how Microsoft navigates this one.
