This may be a mundane question and no, I did not search the archives. Is there any preference, from anyone, for one style of chute over the other. I see two kinds: the rounded ones like this:

or a squared off one like this one on e-bay now:

Are there any subtle diffences in performance?

The latter listed is easier to clean when clogged. Wet snow can "fall" out the front. The other type is I think a higher discharge velocity (higher hp requirement also) so this is less concern. Just my take on it.

'tis a good take. Thanks. I think I will go with the latter one then.
