I want to record my skype conversations ...

Audio and/or video conversations? Recording Skype calls seems easy though, unless you mean the chatting conversations though.
Friends Quickitme already does that. This 3rd party app is waste of GB in your HD.
Simply open quicktime and start recording the screen

Only QT Player comes free with a Mac. So for most of us getting QT Pro means buying an extra app, though I assume one can then delete QT Player, but that only frees 42 MB on your HD.
VodBurner for Mac
There seems to be a free app that can record Skype calls, VodBurner for Mac. Does anyone have experience with it? I wonder if a free app can be as good as ecamm's app seems to be!

Maybe a bit late to the party, but I'll chip in anyway. Been using that one for a while and am really happy with it. Frequently updated to stay in sync with Skype updates so far.
GB? Hardly. More like tens of megabytes in the ecamm case.
The really nice thing with a third-party app is that everything is automated. Calls (audio and video) can be recorded and saved into files with decent names automatically. Most things in life are compromises between time, money and other resources...
Free VodBurner for Mac?
Free for 14 or 30 days trial period (and then what)?
Free but with a watermark on the recordings (Windows versions does that unless it's paid for or the other party is also using VodBurner)?
Free with no watermark or fixed trial period, but after an as yet to be determined "Limited Time", a paid upgrade will be required? Sort of like a beta.
The download button on the VodBurner for Windows page is "Download VodBurner for Windows. Free Trial."
The download button for the Mac version at the bottom of the same page is labeled "Download free for a limited time". That could mean the same thing as the Windows version. Or it could be more like a "Free while in beta" thing.
I haven't tried it yet. Have you? I'd be interested in knowing what limitations apply to "free".
