The Common Room / Opinions. Ancestry Vs Find My Past, FamilySearch, MyHeritage etc.

Which is "the best"?
Which would you recommend?
Do they hold all the same records? or do they different from Country and county?
Does anyone hold more Church records than the other?
Which one would you say is better for Military records? or stick with Fold3 or Forces War Records?
My main country of research is England so far, have a few hits in the States as a great-aunt marries an American G.I. after WW2 but I cannot see them without paying even more!
I have been with Ancestry while now, and just wondered if I am missing out on anything, or if I should do alternative months with each... just don't want Ancestry to delete anything on my "off" months.
I know Find My Past now has the 1921 Census, but it is ridiculous priced (for my budget at least), so have brought the single pages I wanted/needed.
Are any of them more geared up for UK Records ?
