I must be in a minority.
I only update from the standard core/updates/extras repositories
(which I get from a local repository).
While I have the .repo files for livna, freshrpms, dries, dag, etc,
they are all disabled (enabled=0) and I would only install 
individual packages from these repositories (yum --enablerepo=livna)
as and when required.
