>But it's also the price you pay if you want to tap into their user base. So it is what it is.
It is? The facebook userbase is entirely and completely unwilling to sign up with a password? Putting a facebook login button on your site doesn't tap into facebook's userbase. If you want to try to tap into their userbase, you need actual integration with facebook, which can be done even though you had them sign up using a password. That way they can still use your site when facebook fucks up, and only the "automatically spam my friends" stuff stops working.
