With all these options, there's a few reasons you may want to use each. Installer:. Usually uses some administrator privileges to add application data to system folders, or add start up items. Can sometimes become difficult to delete later on, since files are not contained in one location. Allows administrator access during installation - some people may not like this, as it could tamper with files you did not want touched (In an extreme case, where the installer would actually be a virus, etc) Homebrew:. Very easy to update - just run brew update. Everything is installed to /opt/local, or your set location.
Many people just prefer this as they like to use the terminal for everything. Application:. Drag and Drop Installation. Contains all the application files in one space. For this particular one, I suggest Homebrew, if that is something you enjoy using, as it makes for extremely easy updating.
