Debian vs Redhat? And Why?

Hi all Debian vs Redhat? And Why?

I will soon rent a dedicated server for webhosting (with CPanel). I was wondering with what OS should it be. I like Debian, because it is easy to install and update packages. But I see that the most webhosting companies are offering their hosting with Redhat.

So, my question is - why should I choose Redhat instead of Debian, like the more webhosting companies did? What is the advantage of Redhat against the Debian.

I suppose that one of the reasons could be that the Redhat is commercial and the support would be serious. But are there any technical issues that put Redhat ahead ?

Also are there any webhosting companies which are using Debian on their servers and what's their experience with it ?!

Anybody care to share ?

Thanks,
Yas
