Default Balancing Magic and Technology in a Setting

Recently in the World Building Turn-offs thread, I read a debate on Magic and Technology, and it made me wonder: What are people's solutions to having technology AND magic in a setting. The way I see it there are various options: Having it heavily one sided (more magic/less tech or visa versa) or having a combination of the two like Magitech.

So, what are your solutions? What do prefer to do? What settings work better for which option in your opinion? Which option works best? What do you like the least?
