Anim gif is simplest and doesn't require JS. The main advantage of the dynamic favicon stuff is you get to control it programmatically, so for example you could start a flashing sequence when you start playing some audio (so people can locate it from another tab). It also works in Opera, whereas anim gifs don't (I think). Neither technique works in IE though, AFAIK. Yeah, each of the techniques has its pros and cons.
