Well, that depends on the area. Beta is doing quite well out here, and I've heard of a lot of people who are now buying beta (either hifi or super beta). The video stores seem to have a better selection in beta than vhs, especially on friday nights. I also heard that vhs on slow speed doesn't record hifi well, whereas beta seems to have no problem. I personally would go for quality, because a fuzzy picture would be a constant reminder to me that I had made a mistake [:-)].
