Mathew Ingram explains (in the context of the NY Times) why partial feeds suck:

The bottom line is this: if I wanted to click through to the website, then I would just go to the damn website in the first place. Partial feeds defeat almost the entire purpose of reading RSS feeds in the first place. Bad idea, guys.

I read feeds with ads, and it's not the end of the world. If you want your content seen, don't force unnatural acts on me :)
