According the eBay data, Skype has signed up nearly 196 million users by the end of March 2007, an increase of 107 percent from 95 million registered users a year earlier.
It also includes 25 million new users during the first quarter this year. The growth rate is 14 percent. However, during the last quarter of 2006, the VoIP giant had added 35 million new users recording a growth of 26 percent.
There is also no major growth in the number of calling minutes used by Skype users during the last quarter. They have made 7.7 billion minutes of free free Skype-to-Skype calls in the first three months of 2007. It is very negligible increase when we consider the total users of Skype.
Skype has recorded 1.5 million minutes of SkypeOut calls in the Q1 of 2007. Incidentally, the VoIP company had the equal number of SkypeOut minutes during the last quarter of 2006.
It seems that Skype is also feeling the heat of cable VoIP service offered by companies including Comcast and Time Warner.
