I've never really put much thought into it, but decided to finally sit down and look at the implications of each license ... still undecided.
I prefer the MIT. I don't know the specifics of the Mozilla license, but I stay away from everything that looks like GPL. What I code is mostly always proprietary, and using GPL-licensed code just makes everything confusing.
If I ever release any open source libraries/software of my own, I would most likely go for the MIT license. Or even maybe the WTFPL license :) Or if it's just a quick hack, CC0.
I prefer the Mozilla Public License 2.0, because it allows anyone to use my stuff in any project in whatever way they like. The only thing which they are obliged to do is open-source any changes they do to my files. Ideally, they just push the changes upstream...
I honestly still have no idea what's the difference.

This website explains all these licenses in plain english. Might come in handy.
