After recently returning to collecting, and being a bit stunned specifically by how things have changed with variant covers compared to my youth (I only had Newsstand and Direct editions to deal with), I'm curious what people's thoughts are on Trade vs Virgin variants. I understand the valuation differences based on rarity and all that, but beyond the business side of it ... what do people think of one vs the other?

For me it's about the art. If there are different images on the two, I'll grab the one that appeals to me the most. If they are the same image but one doesn't have the trade dress, I'll usually opt for the cheaper of the two.
