I writed post with comparison of direct events and delegated. I compare pure js but it has the same meaning for jquery which only encapsulate it.

Conclusion is that delegated event handling is for dynamic DOM structure where binded elements can be created while user interact with page ( no need again bindings ), and direct event handling is for static DOM elements, when we know that structure will not change.

Using always delegated handlers, which I see is current very trendy is not right way, many programmers use it because "it should be used", but truth is that direct event handlers are better for some situation and choice which method use should be supported by knowledge of differences.
