No, it's a matter of preference. The default fonts in some browsers are pretty ugly, so if you want at least a chance of getting a better font, you can use a stack like this. But it's fine if you don't.

A nice aspect of using just serif or sans-serif is that users who configured their browser's font options get what they chose.
