You are comparing apples and oranges. Both are addressing different audiences and aren't really comparable.
Any comment are very welcome.
The real differences are * CentOS (and its mother RHEL) is an ultra-conservative distro, aiming at long term support. I.e. comes with SW tending to become outdated during it's life-time and therefore will lack features more current distros provide. * Fedora is close to the "bleeding edge" (sometimes beyond) and is short-lived.
Both distros have pros and cons. Which to choose depends upon your needs.
Very oversimplified, CentOS is better suited when wanting to "install once and forget about it for a long time" and/or when not needing "bleeding edge features" (typically servers). Fedora is better suited for those people needing "modern features" and/or having the resources/skills to cope Fedora's fast pace.
My choice is Fedora.
