Have you asked yourself how they can make everything free? What are their incentives? When they successfully centralized majority of DNS resolving, what could they do with that power? Keep in mind that even if their motives are pure at the moment, management and ownership of companies can change.

Look a few years back and you’ll find similar enthusiastic comments about Google: they make everything better and for free. Everyone should use their search, everyone should move to GMail, etc.

Good points. As others have said, I'll probably move off later on, but for now I intend to stay with them (similarly I've been with Gmail for a while and now moved off to stuff like Fastmail, hosting my own "dropbox", etc.).

Primarily because for beginners it's a bit easier to setup everything without much hassle.
