Preferences (to Mr.Mazen + Mr. Abou Beshou)

[MAZEN gamal]

mr essam thanks alot
But I think a lot about the difference between them
let's think
I prefer listening to music to watching Tv
(this is generally what I like )
but now or today I prefer to watch tv
means it isn't my habit
what do you think of this?

[mr.ahmedabdelwahed]

Both are correct, with no difference in meaning. But there is a difference in the structure:

I prefer something to something else.
I prefer apples to oranges.

I prefer doing something to doing something else.
I prefer eating apples to eating oranges.

I prefer to do something rather than (do) something else.
I prefer to eat apples rather than (eat) oranges.
