So, this is like any of the WordPress email subscription plugins out there? [1] No wait, I'm wrong. You have to pay for this. And moreover, it quickly gets you to pay if you are successful at getting people to sign up ($10 a month for just 51 subscribers?!). You might not be locked into the service ("Export emails anytime"), but still. Conclusion, you don't need this service, unless you are a hipster too cool to run software on a server and so need to outsource any interaction with your readers. (Disques users anyone?[2]) Even then, this is an expensive service, the money could be better spent upgrading your shitty hosting service to actually allow you to run software on your (virtual) server...

Disques is a shit service for users and commentators. If you use it, you are doing everyone (and I mean everyone, except the Disques company and similar who make money off your anti-social actions) a disservice. Not only are you risking your the comments on your website (Disques might go bankrupt tomorrow), you are training people to be OK with using a centralized service. Moreover, you are contributing to the tracking of people across the web, and helping advertisers push their shit. The fact that you are cutting off people who don't, for whatever reason, have JavaScript enabled doesn't help your case. Please stop. Edit: footnote 2 added. Edit 2: fixed spacing.
