I bought the Leica 24mm because the 24mm was one of my favorite lenses on Nikon- much easier than the 20mm for me. The Leica just seems to be far less susceptible to flare and seems sharper at the edges (though I haven't done any formal comparisons or testing). I can't say that there is a lot of difference otherwise between the two, except that the Leica does have a much better hood and costs about 5 times as much.
