I'll probably get both. World Tour has a lot to prove. Rock Band has already done it. The new features and drums look awesome for World Tour, but we'll see (probably at E3) what Rock Band 2 has in store.

Right now Rock Band is clearly better, even if you only have a Wii.

 

 In no way shape or form is Rock Band better than what Guitar Hero: World Tour promises on the Wii. There is no custom character creater, no custome insturment design, and no custom song maker. More importantly to most people I imagine is that online is entirely absent from Rock Band while it is fully supported on the Wii. It also offers more songs for a comparable price, with the possibility for an infinite number of songs for every instrument save the microphone for the retail price.

 As to the topic itself, it will depend on how you enjoy the games. From a straight comparison of features, then it is easy to see that the Guitar Hero game is clearly superior. Anything beyond that though will come down strictly to personal preference. I tend to find Rock Band songs a bit too easy, and didn't particularly care for the drums. Others will love the drums and microphone (I don't sing) while not wanting songs that make your hand spasm for an hour after finishing them (fuck you Dragonforce). The placement of the notes is also faily different, and likely you will find one feels better than the other. So I would say it is impossible to judge on anything other than a relatively meaningless comparison of the special features of each game.
