Black Cat dying would be lame though. How long has it been since she has had any relevance in the Spidey books? I think killing her would piss off a bunch of fans too, as she has a cult following. You can't really say that for Aunt May (though MJ does have a pretty strong fanbase.)
From a thematic standpoint, May has to die. The tragedy of Peter's life has always been rooted in the fact that his actions have repercussions. Outing himself was an irresponsible move, and it needs to cost May her life to continue the theme.
