As simple as his answer was Dye has it right, it really does not matter yet all of us have agonized many hours over this decision. I started out 308, decided 30-06 was more versatile, got homesick for 308, went back to that for a while, now i use both interchangeably depending on what rifle I decide to use that day. My older, wiser friends have simplified their lives and just picked one and used the time they spent agonizing over this decision to do more important things like try to remember where they left their keys or cell phone.
