I think they both have different appeals and different people read them.
*nods* That may be largely true. I was going to say that I like both, but I can't quite think of a good example of a buddy pairing I like. I read Ron/Harry, but I like it best when it plays up the hostility between them. I like Harry/Neville too, but I like it for the "shadow self" stuff between them, as was mentioned below, though it isn't antagonistic in that case (yet!).
