There is nothing inherently wrong with HTTPService. I find using AMF (RemoteObject) that my data is more structured. It is much quicker to debug problems of data going over the pipe with AMF. Also, I find the data size to be about one tenth of the size of XML (eg. One of my data calls was returning 82K of XML data; Changing to AMF yielded 8.47K of data. All this according to Charles).
