Microsoft purchases Skype
Skype is quickly becoming the go-to term for an internet call much the way people use the term Google for doing an internet search. Microsoft is apparently well aware of Skype’s value, having purchased the company this morning for a sum of 8.5 billion USD. They plan to extend Skype support to the Xbox 360 and Kinect, Windows Phone 7 devices, and other unnamed devices. No details have been released as to any changes to free internet calling or paid calling plans, but given that Microsoft saw the value in Skype’s current business model it’s entirely possible that nothing price-wise will change. Hit the jump to see the full press release.
