DT is more melodic, more expressive. SFAM beats all POS albums together.

PoS by far! They are just so genious in creating concepts
full of deep emotional greatness, awesme melodies as well
as profound and well-thought lyrics.

Entropia, Remedy Lane, 12:5, Be and Be live are all better than Scenes imo. I love DT though.

Definately DT... their best albums rival PoS by so much!

Dream Theater is better. PoS don't do anything for me.

I think the true greatness of both bands also shows in the fact that there is no concensus among fans which albums are their best.

I'll take DT.  I'd put SDoIT or Awake as their best album aginst BE or Entropia from PoS.  I think DT has just a little more substance to their albums.  PoS has quite a few songs on their albums which really don't have musical value. 
 
The depth of composing in DT is much better than that of PoS.  The main issue here being keyboards.  Jordan Rudess and Kevin Moore are not by much, but a more integral part of their band than Hermansson is of his.

I only prefer DT because they have more varied emotions than the always depressing and sad PoS. ...But if it is compared to the best album of each band...

I'll go with PoS.

I love Images and Words alot (wait for sleep/learning to live will always have a place in my heart) and Its my favorite album from my favorite prog metal band. But nothing that Dream Theater ever made can compare to the masterpiece and wonderful work of art that is Be.

DT: Best albums of the 90's
POS: Best albums of the 00's (so far)

DT has the best #1 album between the two... though I can rarely decide their #1 albums in my mind. I&W/Awake/SFAM > TPE/RL

Dream Theater is lighter and more melodic, but PoS is alright once in awhile.
