Sukla Yajur Veda vs. Krsna Yajur Veda



This topic has bugged me for a while and I wanted to get your learned 
opinions.  Which samhita, the one of the Sukla Yajur Veda or Krsna Yajur 
Veda do people consider to be the superior one or the one more original.  
I know how the story goes about Krsna Yajur Veda being a kind of 
secret intellectual revolt by certain students, but this doesn't explain 
why some follow one recension and not the other.  I also understand that 
Sukla Yajur Veda and Krsna Yajur Veda are followed by descedants of 
different sages, but again, it does not explain which one is the true 
Yajur Veda.  There cannot be two, or can there?
