EBay Mulling Skype Sale

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the do-you-hear-that-flushing-sound dept.

MaineCoasts writes "The Financial Times reports that eBay's new CEO is evaluating a sale of Skype if new ways cannot be found for the fast-growing service to support its core e-commerce business. EBay reported earlier this week that Skype had a 61 percent increase in first-quarter revenue over the same quarter last year and now has 309 million users worldwide."

  1. Boycott Ebay and their BS by coresnake · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Good riddance. I had my account closed by Paypal for no apparent reason and before when I tried to buy Skype credit with paypal they STILL forced me to put in my credit card info. It's all bs, I say let Skype free again. Fuck Ebay.
