I will have to go back and look at that tutorial but I thought that he was leverageing the standard asp.net membership. He just had to basically write his own MVC style wrap up as he wouldn't be making use of runat = server so therfor didn't want to use
the standard controls.
I don't want to tie the user experience to ASP membership. This goes along the lines of making the application super-extensible - imagine there are existing sites out there (usually within a corporate setting) that have their own systems in place (happens
a lot). I want people to be able to map their users easily.
That said my default is ASP membership.

If ASP.NET Membership is important to you, you can add it. There is an MVC Membership project on CodePlex. Personally, I probably would have gone ahead and included ASP.NET Membership, but it is because I would be using it, so I guess we would call that
selfish. I understand the decision not to do it, however. I love the video series on the StoreFront. Nice stuff!

Why Asp.net membership is not used?
Jun 04, 2008 05:43 PM|LINK
hi,
I'm wondering why there is User class and User Table. Can't we use Asp.net membership (MembershipUser)?
Thanks in advance,
Soe Moe
