I really wish 23andme would merge with http://www.familytreedna.com/

I've done both, and to be honest, FamilyTreeDNA seems more comprehensive to me.

Would you mind expanding on this?

The genealogical data is one of the main things I'm looking for; 23AndMe has been "OK" and AncestryDNA has just been a waste.

I'm wondering if it would be worthwhile to pay for a data import onto FTDNA.
