I'm kind of curious, too. The only programs I know are Hilton and Starwood. I value Starpoints at 3-3.5 HHonors points. I have an Amex green card which I use only for double miles opportunities, so I get 4 HHonors points/$1. Everything else goes on the Starwood Amex (when possible).
With all the other programs out there, I feel like I may be missing a little bang for my credit card buck. But I know I'm not missing anything with Marriott:

Now, I'm in Marriott Rewards. I check out their award program on the web, and it seems that they have fewer properties than Hilton (in Europe), but the redemption cost is less.

Don't be fooled by the lower redemption cost. We discussed that here:
