MSN vs YIM

[shield]

Which do you prefer and why?

[CannonBallGuy]

Never used YIM, so I can't really vote.
I prefer AIM to MSN, I have also used Jabber.

I've used both msn and yim, msn looks a lot better compared to yim and its what everyone uses, the only time i would use yim is if msn is down for maintenance.

I preffer MSN, YIM is ok but not great! But i use trillian so i don't get either of their features :p

[Nuvo]

I don't have YIM.
I used to use Integrity, which supports YIM, AIM, MSN and so on, but I had a few problems with it causing other apps to malfunction when it was enabled and it didn't always like connecting, so I uninstalled it.
I don't like IM clients much since I always seem to get messages about absolutely nothing while I'm trying to work :/
I'd rather use IRC or forums.

As with Nuvo, I much prefer IRC, to IM.
I use a program called AdiumX which controls all my AIM, MSN and Jabber contacts, so too me, they are all the same - no difference in features.
