As a user, I really hate when a service doesn't allow me to create an account unless I tie it to Google or Facebook, neither of which I have nor want to have.

There are pros and cons. Personally I find it easier to link an account than to create a new password to store in lastpass. Obviously offering both is the most flexible.
