To commenter and 1st replier: Technically, Terraria is better than Minecraft if you compare it to diversity, gameplay, overall enjoyment, exploration, and free play. Minecraft is better if you compare it to Terraria with building. Well, Minecraft is 3D, which is frankly better than Terraria, which is 2D. Minecraft is only about building, and it's easy to get very bored (I played it for only a few hours and got bored and decided to ditch it and go for Terraria), while Terraria is more about adventure, exploration and combat & fight, and it's possibilities are almost infinite, meaning that you could play for days and days without getting bored. Terraria is also very cheap - $9.99 US, while Minecraft needs $19.99 US. With all these alternatives, it's safe to say that Terraria is a better choice than Minecraft. Also, updates for Terraria is also much more better than Minecraft - Notch is lazier than Redgit and his updates almost do nothing to the game (I updated Minecraft and I felt no difference between the previous one) while the update from 1.0.6.1to 1.1 is so dramatic I felt like playing the whole game again. Seriously, Minecraft is only better because it's 3D. Terraria is worth prices even like $39.99 US.
