Default Jet or Prop?

I'm sure this has been discussed many times before but its late and I'm bored so here we go again:

I've flown them both and feel that each have their unique set of challenges. I love them both and don't feel one was either harder or easier than the other; just different. (shot approaches at the same speeds, many times faster in the prop just cause we could; flew a little lower in the prop, cruise faster in the Jet... etc etc..) I know a lot of T-prop pilots who think they are "better" pilots than RJ drivers and vice versa. I want to know what others think. For lack of a better way to ask this; do you feel that a jet pilot should be paid more, less or the same as a t-prop pilot (assuming the same # of pax) Also what is your experience in either?
