When I started diving integrated weights were the new "it" thing but a lot of people ended up with problems with them because some of them were attached with Velcro and they fell out of the pockets very easily. I never became a fan of them for this reason.
As I mentioned earlier I use a backplate/wing - most of my diving is with steel tanks so I don't need additional weight. The only times I've needed to dive with ditchable weights were as a volunteer driver at an aquarium - I used a weight belt for those dives. I think weight belts are a pretty decent tool.
