Meaning, it will (probably) no longer be free soon. They bought it as of last month in May, so start looking for an alternative if you can't or don't want to pay for it.

And, if anyone knows of a good chat system that is free, and allows instant filesharing like skype, I'm all ears. Because I use skype for everything.
