Actually MySQL is much better, but every scripter should do it the way that feels best for him/her.
In MySQL you can do things that are simply not possible if using dini/y_ini or something.
MySQL is better than y_ini.
y_ini is better than dINI.

And also, when you want to create some kind of user panel on your website, you going to need mysql.
And theres alot more. basicly, mysql is better.
