The Repeater is discontinued while Live keeps improving with every update.
At the moment Live is running much more CPU efficient on a windows machine
than on a Mac. This is supposed to change though, as Ableton is now
optimizing the code for Macintosh Altivec routines.

Another important difference is storage capacity. With the Repeater you can
reverse audio files, which Live can not yet do. The Repeater will let you
manipulate pitch by external midi (for example by using an expression 
pedal)
and this is not yet implemented into Live.
