For my money: on the one hand these are both perfectly reasonable award categories … but on the other hand, the number of Hugos have bloated from 20 (circa 1995) to over 30 today, which is Too Many: we probably ought to fork the Hugo Awards into a set of awards for writing/editing/publishing, and a different set of awards (different name, too) for media categories?
