Voice on Skype is great and the ability to call landlines sounds great though i've not used that personally, voice is better than MSN and less laggy. The interface is not as intuitive as MSN (I sometimes initiate voice calls that I dont meen too for instance).
On MSN i've never had a random spammer add me, on Skype I get random contacts, usually from Turkish men asking me to teach them English. I've since changed my profile photograph to something less flattering and this has decreased.
MSN has never popped to the front whilst i've been playing a multiplayer racing game and caused me to crash out of a race. Skype did once, so I swore at the Turkish bloke in several languages to increase his chance of understanding.
Overall I preffer MSN for it's simpler interface, although MSN's use of flashing ad's and that sidebar has taken some training for me to mentally block out - and ocassionally the advert at the bottom expands outside of its boundaries and this has begun to make we want napalm Microsoft's office buildings, thankfully i'm not a member of the NRA so if I did go postal the only people to be effected would be some Fenland farmer saying "I likes my Turkies I do, 'ere 'av you seen my webbed feet?" - which would be no real loss.
