Depends on what sound I'm after, I like the sound it produces when using a pick, but I like the versatility that comes with playing with the fingers.....
I used to do finger and slap mostly, but after listening to arcade fire, I've started to learn how to strum a bass. It's an extremely unique sound playing chords on it :).
I've always been a thumb type of guy- just a matter of comfort. Like others have stated, different types of music call for different styles of playing, though.
Finger all the way. I have sort of a strange technique that I've developed for it, but I can play faster with one finger than most people can with a pick. Plus I love the sound.
