Job Opportunity Gone, Should I reply?

Recently, I had multiple job interviews with 3 different people at the company. It was very very close to getting the job offer. Spent 1 month interviewing with this company. Today, I finally receive an email telling me I am no longer considered for the position. It was me against another candidate. Should I reply back and thank them for their time and consideration? Should I write 1-2 sentences? or ignore them and move forward? This is a great company though.

I would thank them for considering you for the position and if another position would open you would like the opportunity to interview for the position again.

Thanks for the reply.
I will e-mail them back in a few hours. I'm a bit surprised and disappointed...I should have delayed the last interview to prepare for the technical questions....I am employed and have nothing to lose right now. -

I would reply and thank them anyways. You never know if the person they chose ends up being a bonehead and they end up calling you back. -

Even if you are not selected for a position, it is a sign of professionalism to thank them for considering you, and politely ask that should any future opportunities arise to consider you.
