Personally I would go with .net because it is more common. However if the name that I wanted could be registered with .info then I may might choose it over .net.

I would choose .net

Somehow .info applied only to free service for me (that's me not other people thought!)

I don't know about .net as I've nevered registered .net's before, but between .com and .info, I have reason to believe that google prefers .com's. I used to do blackhat adsense sites in large batches so I'd register for .info's for a fraction of the price of .com's. Somewhere down the line though I did an experiment with .com's and found that they were ranked higher and stayed in the SERPs longer!


Guess that still doesn't answer your question...sorry!

It also depends on the domain name itself. Some just work better as .net, while others .info. I used to have a proxy: SafeDirect.net I thought was great but as a .info I wouldn't like it, while the other way around is possible to. It's all about gut feeling, don't let a budget hold you back. I would prefer a .net over .info though.

I would just go ahead and register both .net and .info if my funds allow it. But if I had to choose only one I'd go for the .net domain.
