NASA World Wind is an extremally good product and is definately a tough compition to Google Earth.
Digg says:
World Wind lets you zoom from satellite altitude into any place on Earth. Leveraging Landsat satellite imagery and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission data, World Wind lets you experience Earth terrain in visually rich 3D, just as if you were really there."... and it's open source!
Some users are liking its details but some are in more comfort with Google Earth. Well! Both are going to have plus and minus points, but at the moment I will say both are as good as other.
