Drag-and-Drop into Photoshop

Select an object in Illustrator with the Selection tool (V) and drag it into an open Photoshop document. Just as with placing an image, dragging-and-dropping an image results in handles for resizing the image. Is this method better than placing, or vice versa? It's really a matter of personal preference. Some people like to set up Illustrator and Photoshop side by side, and drag from one to the other, while others will prefer placing previously saved files. They both work well it's really your choice.
