Technically, if you only take the pure RTS engine into account, Total Annihilation is indeed much better than Starcraft - it has much better pathfinding algorithms, much more units etc. As far as the overall 'feeling', the music etc. is concerned, however, SC is much better IMHO.

I bought both games back in 1997-1998. Have played some hours with TA - it just couldn't 'catch' me. After that, played years with Starcraft (it has so much better overall gameplay that make the RTS engne problems easily forgotten) :)
