While you're right about loyalty, quality matters too. Skype is infinitely better than Google Voice when it comes to video calls (very little lag, if at all!) - plus, users can video conference for free, which is not an option with Google Voice (as of now). My point is, Skype is the best product in the market in its domain, no question.
I do agree than Microsoft is massively overpaying for Skype, however.
- moeffju 15y agoSkype stopped free video conferences after the end of the beta phase. You now need a subscription to have video calls with multiple people.
- bvi 15y agoGood point, thanks. But one of the biggest factors in favor of Skype is still its free audio conferencing capability. Google Voice does not have this, unfortunately, and I wonder why.
