Battery comes with a huge number of drum kits and samples, where as impluse doesn't.
I use impulse quite often with samples loaded from DVD's on the front of future music or computer music. They often bundle a load of single hit bass drums on the front of a cover disk, or whole kits.
My main drum machine though is an external roland MC307, which I program in a midi clip and send, then record the audio as it comes in. Thats the kind of thing live will do and reason wont.

There are tons of free VSTs on the internet.
I like Reason. A freind of mine has it. but I don't like the sequencer on it. Some people absoultly love it. and it can make some good sounds.
Live is my sequencer for my studio (using both hardware and software) Reason is cool and all but I feel that it should be used in combination with other sound sources. (just like I wouldn't want to hear an album made all on a Yamaha RM1X, or just on a Korg EM-1) Variety is the spice of live. (to coin a phrase )

Like the man said, try the demos, you'll quickly find what you love and hate about both Live and Reason.
I love em both, they work a treat together. If you wanna record audio get Live 5 and maybe start out with some free or cheap vsts. Computer music magazine has a whole sequencer package (which I hate) on it's coverdisk which comes with a few vsts such as a 303 emulator, drum module, etc. Try them out to get a feel for the Live/Vst connection... without having to shell out for costly vsts you can pick up later if you want to.
But Reason is fab as well. You're spolied for choice ! Test em out before you spend and have fun.
Yeah Kruder and Dorfmeister are great. Get in there and make some great music Cartel00...
