There's a bit of chicken and egg as well

There's a bit of chicken and egg as well - I've got an OpenID, but nowhere to use it. Very, very few places support OpenID.

In addition, there are some places that support both OpenID and the classic username/password which I had an account with already - but they provided no way to transition or connect to OpenID. So I'm stuck with the username/password system.

Truth is, OpenID just isn't an option in most places. In addition, it's not that elegant of a solution either - it involves typing in a URL. I'm not sure most people want to do that.
