Is it better to burn out or fade away..

It is all a matter of interpretation, but to me it seems it would be better to burn out.
to me,
If you burn out, you have ended things with a bang at the top of your game.
if you fade away, it would seem that you slowly diminished until you are only a shadow of what you once were.

Look at how Jimi Hendrix or Stevie Ray Vaunghan went, at the top of thier game and will be remembered for being great...
I know this is apples and oranges but take a look at Rome, it was once great but lead a slow and ugly demise.

Any thoughts?
I encourage different views and examples!
