I'm not your parent poster but I personally dislike that you have to instantiate a separated Response object, and that you have to fetch a stream, even for tiny responses. In those Python/Ruby frameworks it's just one line. I always end up writing a wrapper just to change it.

And this one is a pet peeve, but I hate that verbose stateful OO idiom where you instantiate an object (with a factory) and then use setters to change properties, instead of setting it all in a single command. I don't know if other .NET HTTP libraries change that, though...
