Sources close to Microsoft reported this week to Verge that the company is going to “send for retirement” the Windows Live Messenger service in favor of Skype support, which it bought back in May 2011.
If you believe the sources, Microsoft is going to announce the closure of the Windows Live Messenger service very soon. In addition, it is reported that the service is integrated into Skype itself. Some journalists have already tried to contact the company, but the latter did not give any official comments on this matter. The essence of closing Windows Live Messenger is to merge user accounts of Microsoft and Skype and the possibility of using them for authorization in Skype itself.
Many owners of Skype 6.0 for Mac and Windows have already seen the option in the program when authorizing a service where they suggest using a Microsoft or Facebook login.
