None of these, they are considered as expensive and not for people who just
sleep at night.

Sorry, but that is complete nonsense.

Agreed. I do like the Pitztal but I'd hardly compare it to the Lech or St
Anton.

Which austrian resort can compare it to the Arlberg skiing area? Not
many i think. I've been to a lot of austrian resorts and i've never
thought that lech is more expensive than any other austrian resort.

If you think Lech is expensive you have never been to a french resort :-)

For the record I didn't say it was expensive either, in fact, I said the
reverse :-)

You're right, Turan Fettahoglu said that ;-)

Your level of skiing ability would have a bearing on your decision -
St Anton itself has generally steeper terrain than Lech/Zurs, and is
more suitable for those with more expertise. Lech/Zurs is probably a
little more varied, but they are all fairly easily accessible from
each other anyway. The frequency of the buses could be improved
though!
