A never ending discussion ;-)
IMHO URI is a clean implementation and superset of URLs, replacing a 
bunch of classes with basically one. Dispatching of services is done by 
mapping schemes to client classes.
In our projects we by now exclusively use URIs, also as a replacement 
for filenames wherever possible.
