eBay CEO Says All Phone Calls Will Be Free: Page 2 of 2

Meg Whitman tells analysts that VoIP will drive down costs to zero, and that providers will make money by delivering ads and selling users other services.
October 20, 2005

Whitman said that in the long run, VoIP providers with the "largest ecosystems" will thrive because their users can be sold on other services, such as PayPal which eBay also owns, or the highest-paying ads can be delivered to them.

In the call, eBay said that Skype will bring in an estimated $60 million in 2005, and more than $200 million in 2006.
