Hattip to Om Malik who comments “Looks pretty good, unless you start slicing and dicing it differently. That’s about $318,000 a day in sales for Skype. Being snarky for a minute, at that rate, the sales-to-deal-price ($2.6 billion) parity will take about 8176 days. Roughly 22 years! (Of course they will grow their sales)”
Actually, the EBay owned Skype for 79 days during 2005, so Skype earned $314,000 per day during the last 79 days of 2005. Based on the average number of Skype subscribers durign 2005 this meands Skype probably sold $80 Million in services last year. For more detailed analysis see http://www.voipwiki.com.
