The fact of the matter is, however, that if Skype could be replaced, it would.


Is that sort of like the: "If you invented Facebook you would have invented Facebook?" argument?


Yep, sounds like it. Skype doesn't need any more reasons to go away, it's horrible and unmaintained on most platforms (it crashes every 5-10 lines of chatting on all ny Linux computers, for instance), there's just no better competitor so far.

Here's hoping for Viber, I guess...
