Well, I have a couple of web applications which suck up a thread for such things as well. I do it so that I can schedule processes through this single application and the end people do not need anything else, and also because if they had to admin their own servers in these instances it would just look bad on me as the scheduled processes need to be configured by simple end users who don't know anything about the server. I guess it really depends on the usages, and these applications run on Windows or *nix. I don't use Quartz, but instead just some custom classes.
