IP camera is better

IP Cameras is better because we can check or view its operation where ever we go.
In the means of internet connection.
By simply browsing its IP address, we already have the status or the view.

The main difference between the two camera types is the way in which the video signal is delivered.
Analog cameras(cable camera) turn the video signal into a format that can be received by a television or other receiver such as a VCR or monitor.
An IP based camera, also known as an IP network camera, digitizes the video signal using a specialized encoder that contains an onboard web server.
This allows the IP camera to act as a network device, thus allowing captured video images to be viewed not only through an existing network, but also through a web browser that can be accessed through the Internet.
Both analog and IP-based video cameras can transmit signals either wirelessly or through wired connections such as Cat5e cables.
IP-based cameras have the added benefit of being able to use switches, hubs, and routers that allow the Cat5e network to be expanded to much broader ranges.
In order to determine which style camera system is best suited to your needs, let us take a closer look at some of the pros and cons of each style.

for me its better to use Cable Camera because IP Cameara is live viewing only and no storage device and Cable Camera theres a storage that store all the back up in the storage device so if you want to view all record you always see because of the storage divice that spare in the DVR.

IP camera is better; it's to easy to install, and it's easy to access from wherever you go by browsing the IP address.
