I just used PC-to-PC voice calling through MSN for the first time and was a little disappointed that there was some crackling on the line. I used earphone to eliminate any feedback from my speakers and I adjusted the volumes but couldn't improve it much.

I'm trying to set it up so that I can have clear voice to voice conversations. Is there a trick I'm missing or should I use some other software?

I have never heard anyone on MSN. I presume it would be a bit slow and stuttering like live webcam images, where people's lipsync is delayed(it seems as if you are watching a dubbed/ subtitled foreign film), and their physical actions look like animation in old cartoon films Technology has not improved well enough yet, I think.

Use Skype, free PC to PC, very inexpensive for foreign calls and perfect signal even with video.

We can thank mobile operators for getting us used to crap quality calls

I've used this a couple of times. Thought it was fine.
A bit strange though, sitting minding my own business and msn was in the background, all of a sudden this voice sounded. I nearly $hit myself
Was a good conversation with a good friend, can't say I noticed if it was crappy or not, I was fascinated
