If Microsoft is successful in their bid to aquire Yahoo, would it impact your use of Yahoo's sites/servies?

In speaking with my friends, some state they would no longer use Yahoo-related websites if Microsoft succeeded in it's desire to purchase Yahoo. Some simply don't like Microsoft, and others feel that Microsoft would negatively impact how Yahoo sites and services are currently offered - I'm curious whether the average user feels that this would have an impact on their decision to use Yahoo - for searches, mail, answers, etc., or whether it plays no part in their choice to use these services, or simply don't care whether Microsoft controls Yahoo in the future.

Unless the acquisition results in some significantly unfavorable change, I'll stick with Yahoo. Perhaps MSFT can clean up the mess with the Q%26amp;A referees, which are at present a worthless piece of sh-t.
Reply:I think Microsoft would try to keep it as alike as possible, if they bought Yahoo. I would still use it as long as I still liked it. I guess time will tell.
Reply:Not much will change, if anything things would improve more. Microsoft is a giant and so is Google. Yahoo wants much more than 44 billion. Some analysts say roughly around 60 billion. If Microsoft is able to attain Yahoo, then things would get extremely interesting, it would basically be Yahoo (Microsoft) vs. Google. Keep in mind that Microsoft has MSN too and that is a very popular engine as well. Should be interesting, as a user, I use both of them and love both of them.
Reply:I'd still use Yahoo. IMO Google is now pushing the limits of accepable corporate responsibility so it's healthy to use a competitor - Yahoo does that, no matter who it's owned by.
