It's just two different styles of cameras, really. Some people prefer rangefinders, some prefer SLRs. I have a Kiev 4 I shoot with sometimes, and I used to have a Leica M3 with a Summilux 50mm f/1.4. Damn near the best rangefinder ever made, but I sold it and went back to shooting Nikons because the rangefinder thing doesn't fit me. Some feel that way about SLR cameras. It's all personal preference.
Some people will argue that rangefinder cameras are smaller, quieter, and less noticeable in street photography, but at this point it's moot. A Canon digital Rebel is the same size as a Leica. A Canon Elan is no louder than a Leica. Being noticed is a more a product of the photographer than the camera.
So yeah, they're both great, just different. Shoot what works for you.
