Nikon versus Canon High End digital? Pros and cons?

Would love to hear some stories about high end nikon and canon digitals, especially shooters who have used both. I am looking to do stock photography and continue wedding photography.

Canon has 3 things going for it that Nikon will have a hard time matching:

1. Market share - Canon owns the DSLR market with Nikon and Sony a long ways back in #2 and #3 spots. There are going to be some more casualties along the way as the traditional 35mm SLR companies pass out of view and likely out of business. Market share means lots of choices in after market product for Canon users.

2. Optics - Canon has a much broader array to chose from, with a 3 tiered line up to select from. Canon's line up has product for the amateur, semi-pro and pro at corresponding price points. There's just more to choose from, especially when you include the after market.

3. Hardware - Canon manufactures all its own components - sensor, processor, etc. so they have a lot more control and insight into the components and can use this to drive a lot of product out the door. From the mighty 1DS to the 300D Canon delivers a unmatched selection of depth.

Three very powerful arguments for going Canon. In the days of film, Nikon may have gotten a leg up for its optics. But the world is digital now. Nikon's day in the sun is history.
