While doing some comparison, I currently am leaning more towards JasperReports. JR seems that is is more XML centric in that it's main definitions for the reports exist inside an XML file. Whereas JFreeReport is more Code Centric in that you define your report using a TableModel or Model of some sort and set properties within the java code itself. Still hoping for some other feedback from people that have used it though. Thanks.
Since this age-old thread got resurrected already, I'll chip in with my observation that many more questions get asked about JasperReports than JFreeReport. While that's no judgement on their respective quality, it does point to what gets used more often.

Or it points to JasperReports is harder to use and JFreeReport is so good and easy, there are no need to ask questions.
