I don't mind losing Hearts - but I sure hope Spider Solitaire is still there - 
as that's really the only occasional WinOS game I play. 

I am surprised though - to read that the OS upgrade is FREE if you have Win 7 
or 8.1. My home desktop is Win7 Pro - which means if I take the upgrade - at 
least I won't get that Annoying crap of them Automatically upgrading and 
Rebooting my PC on me!

What will you gain? A free upgrade from the 
already-excellent-apart-from-the-UI-when-on-non-touch-devices Windows 8.1.

What will you lose?

> Windows Media Center

No loss there.

> the card game Hearts

Hardly a show-stopper.

> and Windows 7's desktop gadgets

Which nobody uses.

Surely not a big deal for the very few use-cases there still are.

Doesn't everyone just use VLC anyway?
