Okay, here's my take:
GOG and Steam have some game differences, so if there are games on GOG that you want and aren't on Steam or vice versa, your choice is made for you (assuming you're fine with the platform).
When it comes to indie games, games sold on both GOG and Steam, I find that bundles are better than GOG. They are of course more limited, both in choice and in availability, but most indie games do come to bundles, and they typically provide both a DRM-free copy and a Steam code, thereby covering both bases. When it comes to Humble Bundle you often also get a DRM-free Linux installer, something that's not available through either GOG or Steam. (GOG due to lack of Linux support, and Steam due to not providing an installer).
