Quite simple, Albini's production style was quite hands off. After listening to In Utero again just the other day, I think Albini's production means that the album has dated quite badly. Krist Noveselic may aswell have not turned up for a good third of the album.
I thought All Apologies was the only track which had to changed?

Nevermind by a Mile

Teretoral pissings

I would pick nevermind over Utero just because of that song alone

Nice topic, one i've thought about on a few occassions.

I have a thing for buying vinyl only when an album is one of my absolute favourite albums. I bought In utero on vinyl but not nevermind. IMO in utero is better, (not to say nevermind isn't a great album). The lyrics imo are better (especially heart shaped box), the music is a heavier and 'less radio friendly' which i prefer and the album as a whole seems to hang together better.

I would say that over-listening might be a problem for nevermind though and that many of the songs on in utero are not going to be heard on most radio stations.

Frankly I don't think the songs on either are going to be heard on many radio stations...

I have been told that most Nirvana fans prefer In Utero. That being said I remember the first time I heard "Smells Like Teen Spirit" on the radio. I thought this song is going to change the face of music. And it did forever. Let it be known that I am not really a Nirvana fan and I think Cobain's playing is way over-rated. However, Nevermind is not. It is a classic album.
Dave Grohl continues to prove who the most talented member of that band was.
