Popup play VS Qslide play: which is better?

In galaxy s3, samsung introduced popup play which allows a user to watch the videos and do any other task together. The video is resized to a small window and this window stays at the top of the apps and thus user can watch the video and do tasks.

In optimus G, LG introduced a new feature called qslide, that allows user to dim the the opacity of playing video so that user can see through the video and thus user can multi task by taking any app. There is a slide bar shown whch will help the user to change the opacity of the video.

Here, both the phones help user to watch videos while tasking with other apps. So, here comes the question, WHICH OF THESE FEATURES IS BETTER? QSLIDE OR POPOUP PLAY?

In popup play, user has no more options, just he/she can move over its position. So, in the case, where user is reading a message thread(or any other like web browsing, reading mail) and watching videos by popup play, popup play show a drawback:- In the case user need to read or view the content below the popup window, he should move over it. So while reading message thread or email threads, it is really ugly to move over every time.

In qslide, both the windows (video player and any other app) are shown together in same resolution, user is just needing to concentrate on the window he need. No matter of move over. According to the user prior to the windows, he has the slide bar which allows him increase and decrease the video playing opacity. Also, qslide playing help user  to hear the audio only of video while in popup play, user has the option only to have the video window placed at top to multi task. So, this feature of qslide help user to listen to the music video as mp3 as well. In Qslide play, also, when the phone is kept in portrait mode, user gets the video window as same as popup play with  the opacity changing slide bar. So, in fact, with the optimus g, users get the popup play mode as well as qslide mode.

So, we can conclude that qslide play is better than popup play.
