BUT

1) why did I have to select a “stronger” password for the LiveID before getting this message !

2) why does Microsoft not care to automatically add my name/email to a mailing list and inform when the service is available for the specific country.. Why should I be looking at this at a later date if there is no mention about what I should expect at a later date..

2) Also there is no hierarchical display of subscriptions by tags!

There are many who have switched from Bloglines to Google Reader like Geek to Live: From Bloglines to Google Reader
