Is it easier to spin with a wheel, or what?

[humblestumble]

I tried spinning with a drop spindle, and it wasn't all too exciting to me, and the roving kept breaking off (I was spinning a thin yarn) So now I'm like "eh" about the whole thing. Is it easier/better to spin with a wheel? Sounds like it might be nicer, but my experience is that I could only spin thin yarn now. I tried making it thicker, but it just wasn't working.
