If i'm reading the article correctly, this IS in regards to the MSN chat rooms.

I think there is a difference between MSN Chat Rooms and MSN Messenger!!

I didn't know that was what you were referring to... All you said was MSN.

oh sorry, my fault...

 

 

 

may be they are threatning only.. for more advertising... and making a topic of chating... and then say:

"Microsoft won't close the chat room under pressure from the chaters"

Smart move in my opinion. I used to use the MSN Chat quite often, but now there are just massive amounts of spammers there that IM you useless garbage. This move also helps protect Microsoft from any legal actions that may result from these actions. If people have to pay then there are ways to track violators.

So overall I believe it is a smart move on Microsoft's behalf.
