I hate controller that take batteries. Especially when you don't use them for ages, go to play something and find the batteries have died.

Personnaly, I'm actually VERY glad MS did not go the PS way about that.

I HATE when I need to find that stupid USB cable (and a long enough one...) to be able to play anything on my PS3. Hopefuly I'm using it only for Bluray but still, very frustrating some time. Having the option is so conveniant for me, with 3 kids playing on 3 differents consoles with a lot of controllers!

On the other hand, MS is pricing the charge kit a bit too high for those like you who dislike batterie  (also for good reason :)).

I use batteries on my 360 and I buy a bulk pack of Duracell's every now and then and it works fine.  However, my Wii U has the rechargable controllers and I have to say it's waaayyy better.  They last a very long dime per charge - 50+ hours - and include a long cord so that you can charge and play if need be.  I have two controllers so I charge one while using the other.  I've put in 100's of hours on COD and only had to swap controllers like 3 or 4 times.  I don't really consider it a system-seller either way, but never having to remember to buy batteries is a nice advancement.
