Importing old posts?

What's the advantage of importing all my old LJ posts into DJ over just leaving a forwarding address? Won't I lose all the comments?

As others have said, the DW importer gives you the option to import comments alongside the entries. (And you can run it again later to update crossposted entries with later LJ comments.)

To my mind this is - at minimum - an excellent live backup of my LJ, comments and all.
