hm its just based on forums. ive installed it already, just did a more thorough search. it appears that some wankers saw 'made by the kazaa people' and misinterpreted the EULA. kinda like muslims reading the koran.

Been using Skype for a couple of months now on OSX (3+ hours every day) and have to say that I'm very pleased. The sound quality is much better than traditional international (mobile) calls, at least here in the UK and, and the difference it has made on my phone bill is obviously quite major. Haven't noticed any spyware at least in the OSX version, and it also seems to use only a minimal amount of bandwidth. Good stuff
