WCF Data Service or Entity Framework

I need to develop an application to store some flat files in a database. Console and SQL Server will be on the same computer, which of these two options is better?

  • Create WCF data services and use it from a console application.
  • Use Entity Framework Entities Directly from a Console Application

Generally, when is it best to use WCF data services or Entity Framework?

THANK!
