Creating an MSN Account, not Hotmail
When we say MSN it is stands for Microsoft Network. It is a passport use to access different MSN services. Have you ever asked how to get an @msn.com account and not @hotmail.com. Hotmail is a free mail service of MSN with an extension of @hotmail.com, so if you sign up for an msn account, it will redirect you to @hotmail.com or the new @live.com.
Msn.com account is very rare, some might be amazed if others have msn.com account, some think that it is a paid account that there is a premium yearly. They are all wrong because msn account can also be acquired by everybody. The interface and uses are the same compared to hotmail and live, the only difference is the extension of the domain name used.
To create an MSN account just go to accountservices.passport.net/reg.srf?ns=msn.com&sl=1&lc=1033 (copy and pasted it to your web browser) and there you have it the form to apply forn an MSN Account.
