I've spent 3 months using Vim exclusively, and ~4 months with Emacs. They both have their strengths, but the multi cursor plugins for both are vastly inferior to Sublime.
Vim and Emacs both represent a significant investment of time. They have a lot of difficult to remember commands, and require a lot of configuration to get something usable. Sublime Text is drop-dead simple, and is very usable right out of the box. I've switched entirely to Emacs, and I'm happy with the change, but I spend 90% of my time writing code. The equation is going to be different for a front-end developer who spends most of their time in Photoshop, etc.
