I don't experience an insulin response from it.
All in all, sucrolose is better.

I drink way to much Diet soda myself. Tried to cut down but love the taste. The anti-aspartame crowd goes by the theory that the aspartame makes you crave sweets and regular sugar. Thus if you drink diet coke you'll end up having more deserts, candy etc. and gain weight. If you have willpower or if you're on a diet that's not an issue and it doesnt make you gain weight on it's own. The jury is still out on the cancer part though.
