Never use it. Can't see any use of it when I got my own Ventrilo channel. 
But I have a user somewhere, just don't remember the name.

You can't really compare Mumble to Skype.
Mumble is for conferences of people usually in a game.
Skype is for several people for general chat. Also its one network, no servers required.

Mumble is a centralized low-latency conference tool while Skype is a decentralized (p2p) conference tool with alot of bling-bling (extras).
Ive been in conferences with more than 4 people and the quality just dies because some people don't have enough bandwidth.
Skype is great for 1on1 spur-of-the-moment calls but in that case I rather just write an IM
Also: The Mumble client/server never crashed on me while skype crashed twice
