Reasons for making the switch are listed here:

http://logback.qos.ch/reasonsToSwitch.html

Some highlights:

When logback prints an exception, the stack trace will include packaging data.
Automatic removal of old log archives
Automatic reloading of configuration files

Not to mention the author of log4j has said that he will stop development on the project.

Consider using a tool to automate the conversion:
