Here's a table showing most of the products in each company, as you can see they have a corresponding product in just about every flavour and type and if one brings out a new drink the other always releases one soon after to fight them in that small area of the market.
With both companies constantly at 'war' with each other there is incentive for new ideas to try and get a head of the other...but really what is the difference between most of these drinks?
A little change in contents and a different sticker.

I probably like Fanta the most. But I really don't care which company makes what as long as it tastes good :)
