I don't think there's a single web person that doesn't have a nightmare story about Godaddy. A bunch of my domains went into "purgatory" and they were trying to get me to pay a king's ransom to get them back (I believe it was around $350 per domain, but this was back in 2005 and I was poor). I'm not poor now, I'm broke. Big difference.

I've never purchased hosting from them, and never will. But I've used their Cpanel because of clients who already purchased hosting, and I don't like it. However, I will continue to use them for domain purchases for as long as I can create unlimited email accounts and change my IP through a VPN. Hard to beat $.99 domain names for life.

And to be honest, like everyone else already stated, Godaddy ain't going nowhere. I like stability in the little bit of control I turn over.
