Still a Good Value

I am not bothered by the glitch. Skype is a good value for the money. I don't depend on it for all my telephone needs but it serves it's purpose for me just fine.

Agreed.

There isn't a VOIP service out there that hasn't had interruptions and problems, and on a far more frequent note than Skype.

I'm not exactly bothered by their glitch, though it did make me reconsider any additional Skype out accounts for employees. I love that plugin that makes phone numbers clickable in Firefox and Thunderbird and will keep it for these two reasons.

I do however call BS on the reason that they gave. Massive restarts of computers? So I guess that this is the first time ever that their 200+ million users have ever run Windows update since Skype was released. They thought about this all weekend and THAT was the best lie that they could come up with? If Skype loves their users so much they should man up and tell us what REALLY happened on Thursday.

I for one would have a lot more respect for them if they came out and said "hey, we got hacked" because EVERYONE in the world knows that is what happened.
