By requesting that WebCam be added to mIRC, you are implicitly requesting that IRC include support for streaming video and sound.
And Why Google added "1GB email"? Why Microsoft added the "msn messenger"? Why Altavista added "online traslator"? Why Mozilla added "mail client" and "irc client"? The most famous programs/companies left their "primary views" and created other views.
Just to have more users and open the features that they have. Why mIRC cant do this? There isnt nothing to lose with this. Only win!
