BMW AWD vs Quattro ?

Looking to either get an A4 or maybe an S4.
Like the BMW 3 series, but how do their
AWD's compare? Does anyone know of any articles on how Audi's quattro compares to BMW's AWD?

Thanks

I believe BMW is all-the-time AWD and can only take power away using brakes...e.g. SCHWAGG !!
