PostgreSQL is certainly more interesting, more useful, more
feature-complete (as far as Relational database servers go), more fun and
what you could learn with PostgreSQL you could take to other database
servers who are out to be real database servers, not the case with MySQL.
AFAIK, MySQL is more common.
