C# and Java are managed programming languages, meaning you don't have to worry about memory allocations and others things that make it hard to write bug-free programs. They offer a good tradeoff on performance vs developing time. While Java can run on multiple OS, C# is used mainly on Windows. Note that Java is also more verbose than C#, meaning you have to write a bit more to get things done.

Just depends what you're doing, and which one YOU prefer to use. Both languages are very useful in their own right, and personally, I love using both of them. For a lot of web apps, I use Java for it. For a lot of my gaming projects, and some of my desktop apps, I use C# for it. So which is better? Whichever one you're better at. lol They're both popular, but Java is clearly more popular than any other language in the world. That hardly makes Java the absolute though.

This might sound like those 'philosophical, skipping the answer' answers. Because, the question actually has no answers. To be frank, there is no 'better' programming language. Each language has its strong points, and is better at doing a particular job than the other language. So, don't get your head tangled in these questions. Both of the languages you've mentioned, are awesome (though I hate the limitations of coding C# in linux ). Also, both languages are almost identical. If you're good at JAVA, all you'll need is a weekend afternoon, and a mug of coffee to understand C#.
