I love both... but Porcupine Tree. As much as Dream Theater is great to me (they basically got me into prog and metal) they have released alot of material I find really horrible in the past... and unlike Dream Theater, Porcupine Tree is at the heat of their creativity!

Yes. i suppose it does count. LTE is mostly DT anyway, without LaBrie; and Levin on bass instead of Myung. Yeah, Rudess hadn't joined yet by that point, but he still counts. 
Hello, mirror. So glad to see you, my friend. It's been a while...

I love both bands! 
 
So, why does one band have to be better than another, its all subjective anyway!

I personally LOVE Porcupine Tree and everything they have done. I wouldn't call myself a fanboy... I don't buy their albums for the fact it says "Porcupine Tree" on the album, I buy them because they are truly music to my ears and, IMO, one of the greatest bands in the last 15 years.
 
On the other hand, although I used to really be into DT, I can't really stand them anymore.  Everything seems forced and non-flowing, unlike PTree (IMO). Oh, and James Labrie..... Confused
 
But who is better? There is no "better", there is only what you as an individual favor.
 
I can't wait for Anesthetize....  Wink
