IANADJ but they have a totally different 'sound' altogether, and i think as a finer point there are some notable structure differences (though i couldn't tell you exactly what)...
120-130
lol.......u thinkin of house man?

Are You Serious?
Techno is the shit.
Anyone wanting to experience the difference for themselves grab a Chris Liebing or DJ Rush set for a clear definition of what techno is.
If you want trance, grab a Tiesto, Corsten, AVB, PVD, etc set.

I used to think techno was garbage until I listened to a Chris Liebing set ... totally gave me respect for the genre.
I might suggest if you want to slowly delve into techno, start out with something like Bryan Zentz - D-Clash .. fairly well known, not too 'abrasive'

pfffffftttttt
im the only person at my school that listens to trance, about 1/100 people on TA listen to techno
so odds are you will never meet someone that listens to techno in your life (if you live in america)
i didnt imply that techno was a bad genre i was saying that not a lot of people listen to it
popularity doesnt = quality of course

Trance more complex than techno

Techno = Disco in disguise....
Trance = Mozart, Beethoven in disguise....
(Just my point of view, both are good in there own why - I just have disco )

Techno doesn't make sense
Trance makes sense in a good sense.
