How did you determine that it's higher quality?
Quality with regards to packaging, the fact you actually get a scooper with every bag, the resealable bags actually work.
Not the content of the protien, as the differences are minimal.
Having used myprotein for many years - their flavour/ textures and mixibilty went downhill about a year ago. Aswell as thier customer service.
Which ties in conveniently with when TPW was founded... by 3 former directors of Myprotein

Tried jack3d before it got banned. Wouldnt recommend it if you train at night.
Havent they since changed the ingredients? I generally train around lunch time - early afternoon. Trying to find a decent pre-workout supplement that gives a good kick

Fair enough. Agree that the bags aren't very resealable, especially the larger ones.
As for the scooper, can't say I've ever not received one from MP.
Regarding flavour and mixabillity, that's a hard point to argue being directly related to "quality".
Better flavour just means more sweetener and other chemicals, which is hardly a case of "better quality" in a product intended to keep you healthy.
The same can be said for mixability.
I've tried using 100% organic unflavoured whey and let me tell you it's the nastiest tasting, un-mixable shit I've ever consumed.
It could be argued that every step away from this is a drop in quality.
The one thing that keeps me sticking with MP is their selection of products with natural flavours.
I personally think avoiding as many (potentially) cancer-inducing chemicals as possible is worth risking a few missing scoopers over.

Possibly MP have started supplying scoops with their protein within the last 2 years.
TPW have a near identical product line up to MP and also have a loyalty point scheme.
As far as im aware neither company produce "organic" protein powders.
Not something i have ever wanted personally.

Good man Ant - someone else has joined the protein works revolution.
Scoott's right though - unless your in contest prep you wont notice any difference.
I hope you used my referal?
