They can't? MSN Messenger was doing that...

  Ah, I didn't know that MSN did that. But the point I was trying to make is that if they say not enough people are using it that means it's not financially viable to keep operating (see: Google Reader).

    > Ah, I didn't know that MSN did that. Yeah. And then MSFT shuttered it for Skype a little bit ago. Ads: not actually a magical miracle money tube.

      Ads are the core of Google's business.

        Yes, I'm aware. That doesn't mean "put ads in product" automagically converts to "sustainable profit/loss".
