I never use programs but combis. Reasons:
- I use two keyboards, one is a slave (only using it as keyboard, no audio output used), so I need programs for each of the 2 keyboards).
- I sometimes need to split one or both of the keyboards.
- I like layering multiple sounds

Too bad the poll is not adding an option for 'Songs' too because I'm tending to move from combis to songs.

Any reasons why you prefer one or the other?

I guess you mean reasons for using combis or songs, since I already gave 3 reasons for programs/combis.

Advantages for combis (vs songs):
- No need to store them on a CF
- Lots of available spaces

Advantages for songs (vs combis):
- 16 instead of 8 programs possible
- More parameters being adjustable
- Use of RPPR

I don't know how easy rearranging songs are. To insert a combi is not a nice job to do. I keep my songs in order with some free spaces to reduce rearranging times.
