The low calorie ones probably are, but not by much.

Seriously what is so hard about just drinking water? Throw some ice cubes in it and it pretty much is indistinguishable from soda in my eyes.

Citrus soda, like Sprite or Mellow Yellow.

Ice cubes? Can you elaborate?

I've had quite a few glasses of water with ice and I can't say I understand where this flavor transformation occurs.

That's because there isn't a flavor transformation. Water is good for you, but it's boring. I just use Mio. 0 calories and it makes water taste so much better.

It's probably worse for you, especially if you're not active enough to require the electrolyte replacement.

Water doesn't hydrate much if you don't have the electrolytes in your system though. There's a reason why we(Combat Medics) gave out hydration salts to severely dehydrated patients. One 8oz bottle of Gatorade/Powerade to 3 500ml bottles of water is the optimum hydrating combination.

Since no one else has mentioned it yet, it's worth noting that the carbonation in soda is also a negative, since it can have a negative effect on bones and teeth over time, and its higher acidic levels can help contribute to ulcers in the long-term and in large enough quantities.

I did, but that doesn't mean I didn't serve for the 3 years I was in.

Yeah, but it's LESS sugar than most sodas, IIRC.

Yeah, but if you just put me in your mouth and swallowed like you do your soda, it'd be way more satisfying!

You've never had Sprite or Mello Yello if you think adding ice to water makes it taste like them. Hell, Sprite and Mello Yello themselves have different tastes.
