I've changed my opinion since this discussion first began, having seen how the two features are used.  Thanks and Like  perform two distinct functions and are not necessarily interchangeable.  Sometimes I just want to let a person know I like what they said, while at other times, a Thank you is all that is needed.
My conclusion now, is Keep'em both!
