I tried the three main XBMC distro: raspbmc, openelec and raspbian.
I early dismissed raspbian because of the lack of updates.
I liked raspbmc because it's a debian and it's easy to add more features to the PI but I dislike and used to fear the monthly update. It would often break my installation (the dreaded endless reboot loop).
I like openelec. It feels lighter but it's hard to add anything to it because it's a custom-tailored linux distribution at its core.
Can't see any differences between the three of them xbmc-feature wise. Most kinks (audio gap when playing songs, etc.) have been ironed out now.
I now use raspbmc with auto-update turned off.
