If you buy your own domain name then you have far more control over how your email and web site is provisioned and you don't have to beholden to your access provider of the moment. It needn't be expensive or difficult to have your email and web site hosted somewhere; such services are very cheap now, plus there is also the whole virtualisation thing. Also for many people hosting their web site and email at the end of their DSL is a reasonable setup, though it has some pitfalls.
