@live.com and @hotmail domains gone?

[MikaelSmoot]

Was going to create a new microsoft account with a live.com domain, or an alias but they appear to be gone, outlook.com only

does anyone know if live.com and hotmail.com are gone for good?

I still use my old hotmail/live email, but they all lead right back to outlook.com.

they got rid of those domain options recently i believe.

At first I wanted to change my hotmail email to outlook, but I see now that it will become a classic so I'm keeping my hotmail email.

I think those of us with existing hotmail.com or live.com domains will get to keep those domain names. I switched up to the new Outlook email and it never changed my domain name. Gave my alias email name the outlook.com domain, but I'm fine with that as it was intended to be a professional contact point.

Well, I recently change my old (hotmail.com) for a new (hotmail.com) I registered as a hotmail.com and added several outlook.com aliases. But with live.com.ar I could just not the usual way.

Does this only effect new users?

Don't know about Live.com but you can still create one with Hotmail.com. I recently made one.
