I'm for oratorios. They're like spaghettios, right? only rounder?  :D

That sounds like a question! Cantatas are free, gratis! You can have all the cantatas you like, and the German arias etc, but only one of operas and oratorios. Or fruit.

I can't choose, it's an impossible question. Opratorios are the way forward.

OK. First I grab all the cantatas in sight.

Then I vote: operas.

Then I sneak a plum while no one is looking.

What's the difference? They are mostly stolen or recycled materials (with the most frequent victim of the theft being himself) anyway!

There's a Mahlerian Hammer lying around here somewhere...  :)
