I'd have to admit to being biased by history.. Debian has for a long, long time had a far superior package management system to any of the redhat variants. I'd always choose a Debian based setup over a centos or fedora for this reason alone. It comes down to the quality of curation of the online repositories in my eyes.
The second reason is that a base Debian install is *tiny* and comes with nothing at all, so the ethos is very clear - install only what you need, when you need it. Redhat offers minimal installs too but it's not a default choice for redhat admins. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.
