[pstricks] When to use metapost...when to use pstricks

I have a 'simple' question. Pstricks is nice because I can have the
source for my figures directly in the source of my document...it is also
very nice because of the all powerful packages and tools that come with
pstricks. I have also seen metapost. Is there any reason why I should
use metapost over pstricks? Are there tasks that are easier to do with
metapost than with pstricks? If so, could you provide a couple of
examples? I guess I was looking for a brief "comparison" of these
approaches...and yes, I do understand that the opinion will be biased in
favor of pstricks (but I am okay with that...and I lean that way anyway).
