Java sucks more. Grinds the whole computer to a stop for a few minutes displaying its coffee-cup logo while it loads the huge plugin. Flash is shit but at least it loads fast.
On the other hand, Java applets typically run a hell of a lot faster than Flash stuff does, at least for me. Flash is a hideous unoptimized cycle pig.
On the gripping hand, Java's the butt of a hell of a lot of jokes about it being a bondage & discipline language. By all reports it seems to tend towards being mind-numbingly verbose.
