Far too expensive...

I pay $24/year for unlimited calls to the USA and Canada. You want
an additional $120/year for the rest? No thanks. With ATT I pay
$4/month and get near free calls to Australia and NZ.

you pay $4/mo to call two countries, but say $10/mo to call 34 countries is expensive?

eBay is considering selling Skype if 'the "synergies" don't work out favorably'.

Really?

What synergies were there to begin with?
