    While the FA Cup IS more important, the Copa del Rey is Spanish equivilant of the FA cup. I would say that the 'bigger' teams rest their top players against the 'smaller' teams so it gives their squad players a chance. This happens in England aswell but there is more chance of an upset because English teams are much better than Spanish teams and this is why the FA Cup is SO MUCH better.

    In England everybody talks about the FA Cup as if it is known throughout the world and is the most famous club competition there is. Unfortunately I do not know how true this actually is, although I suspect it is broadly based in fact. I know from watching coverage of the Copa del Rey in Spain that the teams often put out weakened teams in it to rest players for more important matches, and it is treated as something of a lesser relation, so I am pretty sure that the FA Cup is considered a more "important" (define that how you wish) competition by people across the world; I'm sure more people in Africa could tell you who won last year's FA Cup than could tell you who won the Copa del Rey last year...

    it really depends on which teams you follow. i don't think you could say one is more important than the other. although i think the FA cup is much more widely known.
