LastPass keeps you logged in to your "vault" either while the browser remains open, or by time limit. So you're really only entering the master password once per session. I think Firefox has a similar feature; you enter a master password the first time you try to access your passwords.
People not using features like this, at the very the least, is pretty sad. LastPass saved my sanity.
If I want to read my password I need to enter my master password again. Even when I'm logged in. You could log into the website without the master password but reading the password needs it.
