I prefer getting my software directly from the authors and through their own authorized distribution sites without that shady layer of bureaucracy. Or even downloading the source and compiling the source straight from the source.
I also don't like to download software from third parties. I always download it from the source when possible. But since some emulators use EmuCR to release it's SVN compiled builds, I am forced to use it. I'll give you two examples. The NES emulator "FCEUX" and the Atari 2600 emulator "Stella". Both emulators do not have their SVN compiled builds posted on their official sites. They don't compile them for the user. So unless you know how to compile (which I don't), then you have to download it from EmuCR. FCEUX hasn't had an official bumped version release since December 2010. But there have been literally hundreds of SVN compiled builds with all various updates that EmuCR has compiled and uploaded for FCEUX. (I don't know why FCEUX is waiting so long to bump the version number and release the next official version.)
But anyways, yeah, so that's why I sometimes use EmuCR. So unless I learn how to compile SVN builds myself, I'm left with little choice but to have to use EmuCR.
