Jammers vs traditional Speedos

I am considering purchasing Speedo jammers but I am accustomed to the brief style. I need feedback on the benefits of jammers. My main concern is that jammers will pinch my legs at the base. I mean people do have different leg girths I imagine. Please give me any good and bad opinions of jammers before I plop any money down on them.

    I guess I'm the desenting view - I'm a breaststroker, and prefer the briefs over the jammers. I like to feel the water on my legs - and for championship meets, I still shave. I do have a knee-skin which I only wear for distance freestyle, but for sprints, IMs, fly, and breaststroke - I prefer the brief swim suit. Note: I did not mention backstroke... only swim it because it's part of the IM. Feel the water with your skin - wear the brief !
