I've seen a few TV ads for this, I'm guessing it's another voice-over-internet deal dressed up differently. $20 per year for calling anywhere in the country. Anyone use it/recommend it?

I've read bad stuff about it, but also have had it recommended to me by people that use it. The bad stuff I've read is that it's a subtle spyware device, and that you should keep it on a PC that you don't do anything else on, as it will eventually crash your system. Also, I read similar statements to this: "...if read close enough in the terms of agreement you you agree to allow Don Borislow of YMAX to access information from your computer and sell it [to a] third party so really is your identity worth the money you save a year on internet phone service. What sounds too good to be true, usually is..."

Basically, I think it's ad-driven, although you're still paying $20 a year for it. Which kind of doesn't make sense.
