Its always the same with these shitty closed source apps.  I know
why I wouldn't touch skype with a 10 foot pole.  The "fun" part is that
in the end, the community provides "support" for an application provider
which itself makes money with the services provided.

Where has the "use open protocols" mentality gone to?
