Seems like skype is mostly dead anyway. I remember a few years ago many of the network news agencies exclusively relied on skype (I assume this was an advertising deal with MS because of how much I heard the brand mentioned), but now I see more mentions (adverts) of facetime and never hear about skype.
I'm skeptical of the idea that FaceTime mentions in the news are advertisements, as opposed to just really good branding by Apple and a name that people easily remember.
