Skype. I never even heard about TeamSpeak before this post.

[wunkbone]

Skype is way better. Teamspeak is good for gaming..

[turncoat_ewok]

I am not so familiar with TeamSpeak. So I prefer Skype rather than TeamSpeak.

[mufa23]

I prefer to rely on dedicated servers rather than a P2P protocol. Voices are synced much better, and reduced latency for faster discussions. Teamspeak should add a video codec in the future for webcam chats. Other than that, I can't really think of a reason why Skype is better than Teamspeak. I've used both extensively for years, and I usually just tell people to get on Teamspeak while we're chatting on Skype.

[igl00]

skype is cool enough

[MiningBuddy]

Teamspeak, although mumble is pretty decent too.
I don't use skype much these days unless I'm running it through a VM with a VPS due to IP leaks.

[Farisr9k]

My vote is for Skype. I think it is easy to use.

[nakazznicek]

Voting for TeamSpeak(TS3).
I was using TS3, Ventrilo, Mumble, Skype, few ingame VoIP, and so far TS3 is winning for me. Lightweight, fast, bestest sound quality(least drops, lags and other weird things). Unfortunately you need TS3 server to connect to and chat, but there are plenty of free ones, mostly related to games.

[MegaTech]

I also prefer Skype than TeamSpeak.

[niktitan132]

I prefer Skype,but i'm using TeamSpeak too but for gaming. 

[Kluge]

Ventrilo and TS are used pretty much exclusively for gaming. Skype's a bit more cumbersome, but is the clear winner for chatter of any significance. I don't do voice chat while gaming anymore (never in the mood for some 12-year-old yelling obscenities and talking about how cool he is in my ear), and many games have their own voice capabilities baked in, now, so TS and Vent are largely obsolete as far as I can tell.

[MultipliedCombo]

Both have different features that'd be good for different uses.

I'd use Skype as a personal and business communicator.

For TeamSpeak, I'd use it for gaming clans and servers.

[deuscoin]

Skype is part of the nsa's stuff, so team speak.

[Devance]

I prefer skype I have'nt tried teamspeak yet.

[bitgeek]

TS is better but you have to join a channel with someone. With skype you know if the person is online and can simply call them so it's a bit easier to use.

[Bitcoin Investion]

skaype is my options 

[igl00]

good hangouts is good too

[bluman]

I prefer TS

[Rigon]

I was wondering what do you guys prefer ? Skype or TeamSpeak ?   I prefer Skype .

Skype is the best, i never heard of TeamSpeak

[floman]

TS is better. But i like ventrilo.

[Radelderth]

Skype!! its more stable..

[bluefirecorp]

Apples and oranges. Comparing skype to TS is like comparing a phone to a walkie-talkie. Each have their place.

[cryptomad]

I prefer Skype it's much better with the video calls and great quality

[MadGamer]

Not really mate , TeamSpeak is much used from Gamers

That was his point. Virtually nobody uses Skype for co-op multiplayer FPS games and virtually nobody conducts business or has casual family conversations on TeamSpeak. -So you can't really compare the two because they have such different target goals.

[The Bad Guy]

Skype , don't really use TS3

[pandacoin]

I stopped using Skype, I use TeamSpeak for Steam games.

This is my 1000th message!

[KIRAZ]

Never used teamspeak i though it was a paid server but skype and google hangouts works fine for me.

[SamTsuedo]

Skype is much better.

[Grand_Voyageur]

I was wondering what do you guys prefer ? Skype or TeamSpeak ?   I prefer Skype .

Skype. I use TeamSpeak only while team-playing MMORPG. 

[MadGamer]

So basically most of you use TeamSpeak on Gaming and Skype for everything else 

[Lethn]

When I do chat I use Skype, my only problem with it is it is centralised and you can't block people in group chats that act like douchebags.

[nandaltc]

i'm prefer to use skype because it simple to use

[DavidHume]

Skype here.

[BiTJack]

Skype after that VoipBuster both are good.

[Welsh]

Teamspeak/Ventrilo are used for gaming more commonly, whilst Skype is used for Businesses originally and now general conversations. Although, Vent/TS are largely focused on gaming communities whilst Skype is not. Too different things in my opinion and can't be compared.

[jontrue]

Skype its more stable

[BlackVista]

Skype is more convenient, but the peer to peer nature of it means that there is always a small delay in speech which I find very annoying. 

[bitcoinforhelp]

i prefer teamspeak, less spying stuff

[Atheose0]

I prefer skype. It is far better than TeamSpeak.

[hodap]

Gamers prefer TeamSpeak for some reasons.

[TheButterZone]

Mumble. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=630738.0

[MadGamer]

i prefer teamspeak, less spying stuff

Good point , no one mentioned it 

[Lady_Cake]

Teamspeak! You have more privacy with it 

[PowerCordZ]

Google hangouts

[Nick.Fury]

only skype

[MegaTech]

TeamSpeak   - Gaming
Skype - Friends call

[gracejames482]

I like and prefer skype too.

[ondratra]

Imho for gameplay it's TS better for easy room management, etc. Skype is ok for everything(even it doesn't excel in anything specific).

But what is imho great project that you can use as you like is Mumble http://wiki.mumble.info/wiki/Main_Page . It enables the both Skype and TS(from what I know) and as a great addition is encryption while it's ----- wait for it ----- Open source.

[hecarim]

skype is preferred for me.

[lauraqtro]

I prefer Skype

[tsm]

isnt team speak better for gaming?

[beaknuke]

We did a gaming radio show on Skype....
Teamspeak was great for gaming
the serious gamers prefered the other one
Mumble was fun for whispers.

[llanillo]

Skype all the way.. people still using teamspek? lel

[tsm]

well its either team speak or raidcall which seems to popular as well.

[Baitty]

I love both of them and use both for different purposes.

[Galio]

I use both too 

[MadGamer]

Just wanted to mention that Skype made an update  . for some reasons it not updating the current updating and it's not on their official website. but there is an update Version 7.0 Desktop new interface

[Punggawa]

I prefer Skype
I am not so familiar with teamspeak. but I want to try.

[Nerazzura]

TeamSpeak is more suitable for use when we play online games, but just talk to important issues and everyday I prefer skype

[ahri]

I use both.

[Zawamiya]

Prefer skype, quality is better..

[Feneusens]

Prefer skype.

[nicolegarcia785]

I prefer skype it is much easier to use.

[TrailingComet]

Skype is far superior in pretty much in every way
No contest

[braum]

I used raid call but never team speak.. and skype for personal/business use.

[zazarb]

first time heard about ts, I choose skype

[Daniel91]

All my friends are on skype, nobody on teamspeak, so my choice is obvious and logic one.
Skype!

[Iamyourdad]

Skype 

[CryptoHeaven]

I prefer either Skype or google talk. Never used Teamspeak.

[deepestfear]

Skype wins this contest hands down in my book though Skype mobile is glitchy

[Johanna]

Prefer skype.

[Iamyourdad]

skype

[TheMasterKey]

TeamSpeak is good, those who haven't tried it yet need to give it a chance.

[domeven]

skype forever

[Dabangg]

Skype is awesome.

The one time I used TeamSpeak, someone was randomly playing loud music and people were talking about nothing

[Terwa]

I use RaidCall :/

[michaeladair]

Skype is good for business and Teamspeak is generally good for gaming...

[b!z]

I prefer Teamspeak for speaking with a team. Skype is good for everything else.

[madhatter.]

I think I prefer skype. It is easy to use.

[gabol1]

TS

[Candystripes]

Skype is much, much better.

[AmericanEagle]

I like and use both but I prefer Skype for business related matter.
For gaming and such, I'd prefer teamspeak

[Slark]

I think I prefer skype. It is easy to use.

And how exactly Team Speak is hard to use? Install it, join server, join room, talk with anyone you want. And you do not have to register anywhere, tell them your email, password - anything.

[Dark_Vader]

Skype is better than teamspeak.

[aqua22]

Can't vote apparently but Skype is better imho, there are tons of people already using it and having an account and has plenty of features. not that TeamSpeak is bad or anything but everyone has different priorities while using a service like this.

[Daniel91]

For me Skype is great, specially for group meetings.
All my friends using skype, so it's great way of communication.

[gabol1]

ts

[saullysaul78]

Depends what you're using it for. Skype is more for general stuff, whereas TeamSpeak is mainly for gaming.

[FallenGods]

SKYPE is my personal favorite.

Skype allows these registered users to communicate through both instant messaging and voice chat and it is better than TeamSpeak.

[saddampbuh]

ts for things in general, skype for internet girls because you dont want them all meeting each other

[infringement]

Skype, most people already have it and although the privacy concerns it remains with the highest user base which is important (if you don't want the other person you want to talk to specifically make a new account to talk with you)

[mr.coinstrader]

Skype is good I never used teamspeak

[cryptoforcause]

I prefer Skype over TeamSpeak.

[beaknuke]

both are good but TS for gaming and skype for real world

[BulkBound]

teamspeak for quality and using less bandwidth but i use skype for personal calls.

[pissedoff]

Really depends what you want it for I think teamspeak is the best option for gaming and large groups of people.

[SparkedDev]

okay we all here know why skype is popular and it deals with no clothes and gf's and bf's...

But they both have a plus side is you go and turn off skype ad's it uses wayyyyy less processes.

But team speak?
Its good for large group convos and encrypted rooms.

[zahra4572]

I prefer skype over teamspeak. I never heard about teamspeak before.

[jt byte]

I use Skype there are tons of people already using friends etc

[Divinespark]

Skype without a doubt at the moment, though with MS exp has been getting worse

[TrailingComet]

Skype is starting to suck as a user experience. Guess MS are fucking it up.
Still with Skype. Just.

[poisenrang]

teamspeak and skype, i litterally use them both:)

[Thyaga]

Even  I'm not use it frequently, but will choose Skype.

[funnycoin]

Skype works better for me.

[anonimus]

Skype is much better

[cryptoforcause]

I prefer Skype over TeamSpeak....

[yummyransom]

SKYPE

[GotaPauj]

I havent used teamspeak but as i know from an advertisment fomr skype it allows many people at once to speak/vide/share
