Alexey, A lot of people stay logged in to Twitter or Facebook (or both), so for those people it would become a one-click login (or two if you need to authorise the app) which is much easier than having to register.
Another big motivation for sites to use OAuth is to make specific user interactions easier; e.g. publishing updates to your activity stream, or looking up the IDs of your Facebook contacts to connect you to any known users in the site's own database.
