This article reminds me of the fact that I do use Skype often with my friends but it is an utter piece of shit with all the technical issues it has (most prominently the fact that peoples' voices become distorted randomly and the calls must be restarted). Seriously, you'd think a company like Microsoft would have it figured out by now (how long have they owned Skype?).

Anyways, good news for MS. Always nice to see a company doing well when so many are underperforming.

lol.  Skype is perfect on every device I use it on.  Invest in some decent hardware.

No need for the flame. I do have very decent hardware. I'm not the only one who has these issues. There are many professional casters/streamers I know of who have the same trouble with Skype, and they have amazing computers and headsets. Randomly during calls someone's voice will start to sound robotic and hard to understand. It can happen 10 minutes into a conversation or 3 hours into it. The only way to solve it is by restarting the call which can be super annoying.
