This two approaches having same pros and cons as shading vs ray
tracing. Shading technique using filled triangles to draw graphics,
and similarily can override pixels multiple times. With ray tracing
each pixel color computed separately which enables to draw images of
high photorealistic quality. The issue is same - speed.
I don't think that per-pixel rendering is the way to go, because most
of hardware is not ready yet.
In 10 years situation will change, and we will have enough computing
power in our desktop computers to do that, but not now.
