Totally agree with this point. Asking users for too much information up-front will put them off your app before they even get into the first screens. I'm working on a couple of projects where this conversation has come up. After some qualitative interviews with our target group, it became abundantly clear that this group (under 40 urbanites) are increasingly aware of privacy issues and social signups. They specifically cited Spotify as the culprit. Turns out there were some closed OneDirection fans, and Spotify outed them using social playlists. So if you are going to ask for that info, please tell the user WHY that info is necessary, and WHY it will make a better user experience.
