For example i recently looked up "Hulu" to watch some videos, and all it does is give me links to stuff like forum conversations that had the word hulu in it. Google search, or hell even yahoo search didn't give me such issues, and it has happened with other searches too. I will give to the fact that once you have already search/been to said site, it takes you there much faster on returns to said sites, but I dunno, that just doesnt really cut it for me. But hey if it works for some people, i say let them use it im sorry, but Bing really doesnt make searches easier for me.

If you open IE for the first time you're brought to MSN.com which allows you to search- using Bing. If you sign out of hotmail you're redirected to MSN and can only search using Bing. Google doesn't control windows users, it doesn't control IE, it doesn't control MSN. Therefore ask yourself this- how many people go to Bing for answers and how many people are brought there by Microsoft to find answers. That doesn't make Bing better that just makes Bing no different then a song on the radio that gets stuck in your head. It's forced on newbs and they don't know any better. I'll stick with google.
