Yes, but not only this.  You get accustomed to a nice service, like
Google Reader, and then boom! and it disappears.  How could one rely on
Gmail now?

(Disclaimer: I use neither, i.e., I /do/ use Gmail, but not for critical
stuff.  Anecdote: I used to use my private mail account for one
particular purpose, but when people I exchanged email with started to
send me scanned documents in pretty high resolution /and in bmp format/,
I decided it's time to switch to Gmail...)

Best,
