My question is that > 1) Is this beneficial for protocol like MSN and yahoo? You should ask you ISP. It's a question to the routers between you and the servers you connect to. They have to look at the TOS-field and make their routing-decision depend on this. It could be used in some kind of QoS to decide how to queue pakets. From my experience most routers ignore the TOS, but take a closer look to the amount of money the customer pays and route in a linear dependence to this.
