Windows Live Messenger 8.0 versus MSN Messenger 7.50

[Guest]

I know there was a difference between Windows Messenger & MSN Messenger...

Will there be a new MSN Messenger or Does Windows Live Messenger 8.0 replace
both Windows Messenger & MSN Messenger?

I'm so confused....

Please explain...

Greetings,

MSN products were rebranded as "Windows Live". As such, Windows Live Messenger 8.0 is in
fact just MSN Messenger 8.0; it does not replace Windows Messenger nor have any major
significance to any product line beyond the name.

And yes, I agree, the rebranding is confusing and pointless.
