Like a lot of others, I blog on LJ because it lets me post private entries viewable by my friends (or suitably defined subsets of them). I read friends' LJs here (so I can see their private entries), and I read most other blogs that I follow via RSS (I'm using Google Reader these days since I use several different computers). Unless I can continue to maintain almost all of those friend-network connections and privacy features (whether by mass migration or by technology), I'm unlikely to move my blog elsewhere.
As for your questions, I'd be fine with commenting on your posts at DW, though I'd hope the experience would be pretty painless. (Would I need to type a password every time? That's not a deal breaker, but it might unconsciously make me hesitate a little.) (It might even be better that way: I assume that comments here aren't visible there and vice versa.) As for reading, if you stopped crossposting then I assume I'd shift to reading your blog via RSS. That would mean that I'd miss any friends-locked entries, which would be a shame.
Wow, that was a longer comment than you were asking for. :)
