Martin,

First, I've beaten this to death on Slashdot, so I don't want to go into
long-winded detail.  Suffice it to say that I know people who:

  1) Live in places with only one broadband ISP.  They can't switch ISPs
     unless they want to go to dialup.

  2) Have an ISP with a mailserver rewrites all outbound mail so that
     user@personaldomain.com becomes user@ispdomain.com .  This is not
     satisfactory for all applications.

It's not so cut and dry as some people would have you believe.
