Agreed. For me though, my biggest concern with having "everything" in a handful of providers. At least once a month, we get a story about someone having their account shutdown with no way to get ahold of customer service without creating a blog post and turning it into a news story.

Sure, a number of these show fault on both sides, but many do not. The recent article about an amazon seller adding a profile on his kid's kindle and getting his seller account suspended is an example. With google, having a google account suspended can remove access to your email, calendar, plus all of the linked "log in with google" accounts you have out there.
