    Which one do you guys prefer? MSN or aim? Personally, I've been using MSN for years and haven't looked back since. AIM is slower than MSN; I'd say.

    So, which one do you guys prefer? Is MSN better than AIM?

    MSN.

    Im not a gamer so I dont Xfire.
    Dont use YIM because its not popular.
    Dont use AIM because it messes up my MSN.

    I think AIM 5.x is much faster than MSN. I still use both AIM and MSN.

    MSN, MSN a thousand times MSN :).

    Everyone at school uses it and nothing else, it's too hard to switch.

    Too many people are in my MSN for me to contemplate a switch to AIM

    AIM is full of crap and spyware, it installs spyware and other AOL crap on your pc that you just dont want.

    Luckily, there are loads of third-party versions that have no advertising or spyware and better features. I'm currently using GAIM, but DeadAIM was better, but I think now it's... well, dead. DeadAIM was probably the best chat logging program I've ever used, with much better organization than GAIM. There's absolutely no reason why anyone should ever use the official version of AIM from AOL. AOL hasn't made a decent software product in... forever.
