I really can't decide on an answer because I think it depends on your own individual skill sets.

For me playing live is easier because:

1.  I think I am pretty good at getting reads live - not as good at using hud stats effectively online.
2. I have focus issues which are much much easier to rein in on a single live table vs 1-6 online tables. 
3. Online I feel like my opponents can see right through my soul - live I feel like most of my opponents only think they can see through my soul. I am also pretty good at giving the wrong impression of myself on a live table. 
4. I get a feeling of excitement and being where I should be when playing live - when I play online I often feel out of my element.

As you can see all of those things are mental and emotional - both of which I think are crucial when playing poker. I have the same skill sets otherwise live and online. The only technical thing I can think of is that when playing online you know exactly what the pot size is at all times and what the exact chip stacks of your opponents are. Live you have to "guestimate" a lot.
