I will answer your question with a question - Better quality in what regard ?

Image ?
Interface ?
Construction methods ?
Programming language used ?
Scene description language ?
Number of third party applications that support the program ?

  If you want a good answer ask the right questions and be careful
where you ask them !

I mean image quality.
Which one produces the more photorealistic pictures?
Of course when you are really really good at POV-Ray and BMRT.
If you also can write your own cool include files or shaders.
I dont't know, if I should learn to make POV-Ray or Renderman (BMRT) files.

Please answer honest (is this the right english word?).

THANX,
  CU,

  You should ask "which one is easier to make photorealistic pictures with?".
Some examples of photorealism with povray:

http://www.irtc.org/ftp/pub/stills/1999-08-31/canyon.jpg
http://oz.irtc.org/ftp/pub/stills/1998-10-31/running.jpg
http://oz.irtc.org/ftp/pub/stills/1998-12-31/strike.jpg

  Now, I don't know if these images would have been easier to do with bmrt.

First time I have seen that image. WoW !!!

Where do I get POV-Ray from because I want to start using it right now ?
