Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail

As the above, which one of them is the best?
Pls post your opinion here cos i need to choose one of them to be my primary mail acc.
Actually i am using 3 of them and the mail i need to check is too much
So, i wan to focus on one mail acc now.

IMO, i think that gmail is not bad and i like to use it's calender.
But the real problem that makes me don wan to use it is it cant move the mail into the folder. It only allows us to label it.
That mean i need to went thru about 500 mails in the inbox with all the mail like rojak.

About yahoo, everything is ok but it only give us 1GB of storage... now i already used 40% of it..

Windows Live Mail(hotmail) is better than b4 and it offer 2GB of space and other innovative feature like drag n drop.. etc
But the streamyx at my place always have bad connection to the mail server. Which makes me  mad.gif cos login alone already used 1 min. No need to mention about open mail already. And this always occur everymonth for a few days
Thats my 2 cents
How about urs?

Labelling/tagging is slowly replacing folder.

for me, gmail > yahoo (old) > hotmail/WLM

speed: gmail > yahoo > hotmail
ads: gmail > yahoo > hotmail
interface: gmail > yahoo > hotmail

WLM is just plain sux. i have no idea wth they put the damn ad at the top. bcoz of that, the viewing area is reduced. and the message list area is damn small. and its extremely slow!
