Beatles.
coo coo ka choo.
Agreed on Lennon. Most of the silly stuff can be blamed on McCartney I'm sure. Harrison didn't write a lot of the songs for the Beatles, but there were a few. If I Needed Someone, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, and Something were all Beatles standouts by Harrison. In their last couple of years, Lennon and McCartney collaborated less and less, and generally sang their own songs.
Stones sucks. Beatles rules!
I gotta say that when I was a kid, I liked the Beatles better. After all the music the Stones have done up until now, they've taken the goods. Songs like Angie, Undercover of the Night, Out of Tears, Street Fighting Man, Sympathy for the Devil, Paint It Black, Get Offa My Cloud, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Waiting on a Friend, Mixed Emotions, Anybody Seen My Baby, Let's Spend the Night Together, and Satisfaction.
For me, the Beatles are too syrupy by and large: Strawberry Fields, Penny Lane, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.
I have all the Stones old stuff on decca vinyl in mint condition all the basic blues stuff they started out with.
I got about four other albums from over the years so probably got 11 in total.
I have one or two Beatles albums.
So even though I voted for Beatles in regards to the question and I stick by the reasons, I listen to the Stones more cause of my "taste in music" but that wasnt in the question.
I should make sure to answer the question posed: Beatles or Stones. Personally, in terms of longevity and staying power, I'd have to say The Stones. Not only are they still around, but they are usually the touring act which makes the most in each year they tour as far as I know.
The Stones, all the way.

The Beatles and its not even close imo. None of them suck dick. :P
Nah I like the Stones, but mosty their early blues stuff before they screwed over Brian Jones and Mick got all gay.
I just prefer the Beatles and unlike most Beatles fans i like George the best.

No Beatles no Stones. The Beatles was the first British band to make it big in America. Without the Beatles, the stones would be a bunch of old men playing night clubs in jolly old England.
