Fritz due to its long time >following will just escape and continue to survive. I really liked cm6000's annotated games by Waitkin (They should make some more of those on various topics!). I like Fritz' DB,training features, as well as its cleaner interface. I feel that companies should focus on better and more intuitive ways to help players improve their games. If it was possible to improve how these programs annotate games(right now, it is just in its infancy) would be a great asset! And both should allow connection to an internet telnet server like icc or fics(not that sucky CMLive!)
