Who really cares, Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson are better than both anyway. But the best metal vocals come from Roy Kahn of Kamelot.

Uh, best lyrics? I thought the lyrics went heavily downhill on the Dio albums. His voice is great on H&H and MR, not so much on Dehumanizer. Dio is 2 for 3 with Sabbath, Ozzy is 7 for 8 IMO.
And for their solo careers its no contest in favor of Ozzy. Dio has like 3 and a half good albums (Holy Diver, Last in Line, Lock up the Wolves, and Strange Highways). Ozzy has Blizard, Diary, Howl, Sin, Tears, and Ozzmosis. I think all of those but Howl are at least as good as Holy Diver, half of them far better.

Ozzy is not the better vocalist between himself and Dio. They both have fairly distinctive voices, but Dio's voice is clearer with a fuller sound. They're both half the front man they used to be, which is a shame. I agree that Ozzy is the better singer for Sabbath, but thats it. Dio is the better vocalist overall. But there are several better than both: Dickinson, Halford, Kahn (Kamelot), Hansi Kursch (Blind Guardian), Tobias Sammet (Edguy), Matt Barlow (Iced Earth) and Tony Kakko (Sonata Arctica).

Of course, Dio has stronger vocals. He even saved Sabbath, sure the music changed a little but it was for the better. It's not like Ozzy was invaluable to the band. Nothing against Ozzy, but really what did he actually contribute besides vocals?

Ozzy hates his fans and has zero respect for anyone but his greed. He's a terrible singer and never has been able to sing in key, so he hides behind fantastic musicians, takes all the credit and acts like a buffoon on reality shows and throws water on passive, idiotic fans at his terrible shows.
He is nothing more than vermin and it's a real shame people can't see behind the shameless, media whoring promotion and pandering to a crowd that no longer questions the beep that is fed to them.
