Ahem. I guess I won't express my opinion too strongly on k-on, and I don't know enough to talk about K-on anyways.
But said opinion is not good. It's more of disgust.
However, even if that is true, I think the grand majority of anime adaptations would do better to stick to the lines, since I truly think that it's the exception to the rule unless they really are that good.
But it would seem to me that these stories don't seem as plot heavy, so it might not matter. Like for Lucky Star; plot changes aren't gonna heavily affect the narrative.
And in any case, staying faithful always has its benefits. If you read the LS 4 koma, you will see scenes that are replicated perfectly in the anime, so...
