The Israeli stuff has a cute little plastic basket inside the tub so you can easily lift it from the brine but the Greek gives you more cheese for the same price. The Greek is my go-to but both are good.
I prefer the Greek feta (in the white tub), it has a lot more flavor than the Israeli. It's also cheaper as you pointed out.
About "cow feta" - in Europe, feta cannot be called feta unless it's made from sheep or goat milk. Cow feta lacks the distinctive flavor of feta.
