The best way to determine what's best for you is to sit down and listen to both; what sounds really good to one person might sound like utter crap to another. It really is quite subjective.
i have the jbl creatures, and they're amazing. my nextdoor neighbour has the soundsticks, and they're pretty much at par with each other, although the soundsticks take up a usb port.
i love my creatures. the treble and bass controls are on the subwoofer, and the volume controls are touch sensitive, so there's no knob. they look really sexy next to my g4 imac.
if you're afraid of the dust, then get some canned air. that stuff fixes everything.
I have heard both and they sound fairly equivelant to me.
One note, because the SoundSticks use USB and require a Driver, with almost every maor update to the OS the sounds gets a little better. The difference from 9.0, to 9.1, to 10.1 to 10.2 is pretty amazing.
I like the look of the creatures better though.

If asthetics are very important, well, most computer speakers are pretty ugly.
If you are really concerned about sound quality, give the Klipsch desktop speakers a listen, and compare everybody else to those.
JBL is a subsidy of Harmon International, which also owns Harmon-Kardon. So, the technology is essentially identical with either, you're just comparing how they implement it with the two products. They probably come from the same factory.
