I didn't think I was such an exception, but I do pay a "not
insignificant" amount of subscription. Whether I am "happy" about it is
a moot point!

Worldwide local call access is one of the reasons, I don't feel bad
using friends phone lines on a local call. I know hotmail and similar
allow this, but due to hotmail's old reputation as being the
spammer/pornographers favorite email system they are still bounced by
many corporates.

Consistency, having given out my email address to thousands of people,
contacts over the 5 years I've been using my address I am loath to
change it.

Similarly when I change jobs, I don't want to re-subscribe to all the
lists I subscribe to.

I manage all this quite happily by simply forwarding my email to my
company account wherever I work.

Hope this helps
