Skype group video calling will be free on desktop computers and the Xbox One, said Microsoft in a blog post Monday. Previously, the feature was included as part of Skype Premium, a subscription plan costing $8.99 per month. According to Skype marketing manager Phillip Snalune, “in the future, we’ll be enabling group video calling for all our users across more platforms – at no cost.” Hopefully, those platforms include Skype’s mobile apps on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone.
