Slate has an article extolling Skype. However, whenever someone calls
me on Skype I almost always can tell due to the poor sound quality so
I tell them to hang up and call me back on a real phone. If they have
a real reason to talk to me they can pay to use a real phone.

Skype works so good, and is so inexpensive, that I can't believe it's
still
legal.

We have VOIP for personal use, but I would never use it for business,
I think it sounds cheap...

Then you must have a crappy internet connection.

Aren't you the one who could not understand why it was still
legal?.... pffffttt another intenet hero, LOL...
-------------------------------------------------

There are several reasons why Skype could be assailed legally and be shut
down. Ebay, being the owner of Skype, is probably the main reason why it's
still operational.

Back to your connection- I'm on FIOS with a 20 Mbps Up/Down connection
speed, Skype is crystal clear and better than a normal landline.
You- you live in the sticks don't you?
