It's a very strange question, given that the bands have virtually nothing in common at all other than being English.

I guess because they're both seen as massively influential, and are two of the most popular bands ever.

It is from back in 03 though. And regardless of who it was created by, it still doesn't change that.

It has nostalgic/sentimental/associative value and that is more significant, even I agree with that.

I don't like either, but The Beatles are the lesser of two evils.

So if VS threads are now against the rules, and we deleted the PF vs KC thread for that reason, then why not this one? Especially since this has a lot more potential to turn into an all out flame war.

Nah, they're not against the rules so long as they are well thought-out and lead to productive discussion.

Anyway, I much prefer the Beatles to Led Zeppelin. Primarily because they're much better melodists, and to me, I feel that's what ultimately matters the most. With that said, it's a pretty nonsensical statement given that melody was not really Led Zep's aim (or the aim of most of the bands in the rock era for that matter).

Eh, that reflects exactly why it's a stupid comparison. Not only do the two bands have next to nothing in common, but they didn't even have the same aims/intent, or belong to the same period (ideologically that is; not chronologically).
