I prefer The Beatles. Roots of modern pop and rock music. If not for them, LZ may not have existed. I kinda remember Robert Plant saying his lyrical influence came from the later days of The Beatles around Revolver, SGT Pepper, Magical Mystery Tour.
I think that their styles are so different that they are harder to compare. I would say that Led Zepplin rocks harder and the Beatles are more for getting high and listening to on a boring weekend :D
The difference between dying in a stupid way and dying naturally is whether or not you're trying to get on youtube.

Beattles vs Led Zep. Comparing drummers, John Bonham has it hands down. I play alot of Zep and am forever hearing little ghost foot work that is so cool.
