While I also agree that Gitorious is more "free", at the same time I also feel the lack of resources it has. The web pages have minor bugs like overflowing text in some cases which haven't been fixed for ages. The fact that GitHub has commercial part also guarantees they get some funds to maintain the pages, servers, etc. I don't know who's behind Gitorious but someone has to pay for the servers and if the funding is gone, Gitorious could end like BerliOS. For these reasons I'm more inclined towards GitHub. But with git it's never problem to change the hosting pages anyway.
