personally i like the contour better. for the most part there's no "is the red light on?" moments and the lens angle can be easily rotated so you're always recording on level. i also like the GPS and bluetooth of the contour as well.

the only thing i like better about the gopro is the housing. with the contour you need the special waterproof case to take it swimming but the gopro comes standard with it

i like the gopro better. it seems like there are more how to videos and the waterproof housing is cool too. the gopro seems smaller to me....

Personally i'm a gopro fan. I have one and i love it good quality indestructible and overall a good camera. Without the red light shit skiers say would not have been as funny. I do have to say though contours have much better pov's despite you looking kinda weird haha.
