Why do people use MySQL? What's the point of half a database that corrupts your data?

Alot of software supports it, for example, MythTV. The only choice you have is MySQL. I wish it just supported generic ODBC or JDBC connections, then I'd use Postgres or SQL Server :)

Have you seen how much of a turd the MySQL 5.1 release is?
It has loads of critical data loss bugs.
I wish more stuff would support SQLite, Postgres or Firebird. MySQL just needs to die.

I dare use 5.1, still on 4 for the stuff that matters.
