Default What Oil Filter Do you Use

For last 3 yrs, I have been using AcDelco UPF44 and they are getting little too expensive for me and I am not sure if they are THAT much better than other filtes 1/2 their price. What do you guys use?

I will use the UPF 44 since it is the only filter I have found that filters 8-10 microns. Just ordered six.
