Fun with WordPress: What’s the benefit of 3rd party commenting services?

    I would never use a third-party comment thing. Mainly because of the reason you stated -- they don't offer anything that can not be accomplished locally.

    I also consider comments a personal matter and the privacy issues that arise because of every comment going through a 3rd-party service might put off some of the readers (although most of them are probably unaware of that fact).

    Privacy is a good point Kaspars, you would effectively be re-publishing someone elses content on another website so you would have to be explicit about that.
