Rigid conduit is heavy, expensive, and requires special tools.
Rigid cannot be bent, you need to buy elbows and such.
Rigid requires heavier straps to mount, bigger holes cut for access, etc.
It is outdoor rated, unlike thin wall conduit.

But, if it's free, maybe it's worth it. Me? I'd rather run 1000 feet of PVC than 2 feet of rigid. PVC is cheap, light, can be modified on the fly with simple hand tools, can be stressed into place, and is outdoor compliant.
