It's not that there's anything wrong with liking Oblivion more, but the games are almost apples and oranges. Oblivion is ridiculously dumbed down in comparison. To be fair, I've put far more hours into Oblivion. I love how pretty it is and I end up abusing the fast travel system. There are so many fantastic mods that every time I install it I can put 100 hours into a totally different game than the last time and still feel like I'm playing in Tamriel.
But it's s seriously watered down game. Morrowind makes me enjoy walking and exploring. There is more to see. There's more happening in the world. It's not just the same C&P grass, trees, and rocks everywhere. You can really go in different directions with conversations and finding out about things. In Oblivion there is a very specific flag you need to hit.
Oblivion is kinda like taking the Dragon Age Origins model and boiling it back down to a Fable 1 level morality system where you have an option either save the girl's cat or decorate her house with its entrails. Kinda obvious what's good and bad, eh?
