I read about services in Android very carefully, but I didn't find any 
valid reasons to use it. E.g.

   1. 
   
   By default services run in the main thread, which most of the 
   applications don't want.
   2. 
   
   A service can run on a seperate thread if it spawns it own thread. But 
   if a service runs on a seprate thread, then the method stopService(new 
   Intent(getApplicationContext(), MyService.class)); does not stop the 
   running service. Again this is a problem.
   
If we want to do some background operations, then I think threads are 
better than services. Am I right?
