For me, I find the coffee selection for these things kind of bad and limited. There's simply so much more out there and I profoundly dislike the idea of letting some corporation decide what will and will not brew in my kitchen. I suppose the re-usable k-cups are a good compromise though - I don't know if Keurig's have any kind of detection or lockout that prevents their use.
