I don't know how many +1s you've had so far, but this is another one.<br>
<br>
I think Alex has expressed extremely well why forums are not as effective as <br>
lists.<br>
<br>
I would also simply add that I am on quite a number of mailing lists, and it's <br>
very convenient to deal with them all in one email client.  If each one were <br>
replaced by a forum, I would need multiple logged-in windows in a browser, and <br>
have to actively switch back and forth between them to see if there were new <br>
messages.  This is the biggest thing for me which makes forums highly <br>
unproductive.<br>
