The same way they left MySpace and other services. People get annoyed enough (or something better comes along) and the network effects start to diminish and the tide flows out.

People did not leave MySpace because they were annoyed, but because something better came along that didn't annoy them as much.

I know some people were annoyed at how bad the usability/design was as people customized things. But people have left other services because they didn't like the changes that the site decided to make. Digg is a very obvious example.
