Hello!
I work with them all for years. llustrator is a vector software Photoshop is bitmap. They do 2 different things. For manipulating photos you need Photoshop. For type, logos, animation elements, and drawing elements you need illustrator. Photoshop has some capacity to draw but very limited. The good news is that you dont need to learn all functions. Both programs can do a lot. Look for tutorials specifically geared towards web graphics. Lynda.com has some excellent video tutorials i.e "photoshop CS4 for the web", "Illustrator CS4 for the web".

There is big difference in the grahics software. I would go for Adobe products. InDesign for advertisements, Photoshop for web and photos, Illustrator for vector as in logos etc. It really depends on the task.

It is impossible (well not likely) to be able to master photoshop since it has a huge range of uses from web, photo, animation to even video and now 3d and lots more.

I would choose photoshop as it is, to me, the most powerful, If I want a logo that I can resize, Ill make a huge 10000x10000 photoshop document and scale it as needed.

I can't see why they can't just merge these programs and have it as a tabbed interface just like Maya.

oh wait..
