Never heard of either before but having looked at the comparison [0] I think I prefer the XML version.

I'm with you. I usually prefer JSON to XML but in the example the XML is more readable

What do you like better about the XML version?

It's computer readable and (with highlighting) human readable. The JSON brackets are visually jarring. I feel that the XML is almost self documenting whereas I'd probably need the schema to understand the JSON.

I like JSON for data transfer but for describing documents XML is decent.
