Installed it. Feature-wise there isn’t much new features added compare to its Windows counterpart. And the download/upload transfer speed is still disastrous again compared to its Windows cousin.

While this one apparently has audio and video included, they seem to be restricted to corporate accounts. It's better than it was, but it's definitely not a good solution, still. I'll continue to use Mercury Messenger for video, although the latest Yahoo! Messenger beta (5 distinct beta releases in almost 3 years?) has voice capabilities and the ability to talk to Windows Live clients.

Terrible release! No support for nickname, video and proper offline sorting. Seems like this is a desperate release to keep the Mac community at bay again. Use Adium X instead!

Yesterday I downloaded MSN Messenger for Mac OS X 5.0 because some of my friends have it. What a nightmare. I had a .NET passport a long time ago with an old email and wanted to change it, but every link I clicked on was either dead or misdirected. I tried changing my profile through Preferences/Member Services, but instead of taking me to a web page it showed me the source code! I send an email to them for help but the first thing they said was to click on a link, which of course took me to a "404" page. How can any website be so malfunctional, especially by a big name? My only beef with AIM and YIM is being unable to send files, but I don't do a lot of that anyway.

meh this is perthetic!! microsoft boast about taking advantage of the power of msn yeh for what multiple file sharing and faster instant messenging. pshh like we do that much like i hardley fil share only accationally and isnt the instant meserging fast enouth? microsoft is wasting my time and everyones time why are they using the power for that anyway weres the webcam were the audio support becuase then the power would be worth while and not spent on a jumble of letters. im sick and tired of all my freinds having pcs becinag able to speak to each other and see each other while i have to spend hours finding programs that support that wiv microsoft. i reckon if u do webcam/audio support u may beat ichat becuase the ull e taking big advantage of what msn is capible of and everyone will be using it!! it dont really take a rocket scentist to figure that out?
