MSN Hotmail - Message

I recieved this e-mail from MSN the other day concerning there MSN Wallet. This was there attempt at Paypal that utterly failed. The concept was that MSN would have all your financial records and when you wanted to make a purchase you would just click the wallet at various sites such as amazon.com, ebay, etc. and your credit card/bank account would then be charged. I signed up for this when it first came out about 2 years ago. I think it's kind of funny that I have yet to see a website where I can purchase goods with MSN Wallet. I totally forgot about it until I recieved this e-mail of discontinuation of the service. Microsoft is going down:
