The choice of paper is really dependant on the subject of the image and whether it's going to be matted/framed with glass or passed-around. Glossy for industrial machines, metal work, glass buildings or for specific commercial projects.The down side of glossy is it shows finger prints and should be avoided if close under glass as it can show newton rings. Pearl/Semi-Matt is good option with less reflection and retains good black levels with normal development and exposure.
