I would stick with TCP:

TCP
  • Connection based
  • Guaranteed reliable and ordered
  • Automatically breaks up your data into packets for you
  • Makes sure it doesn’t send data too fast for the internet connection to handle (flow control)
  • Easy to use, you just read and write data like its a file
UDP
  • No concept of connection, you have to code this yourself
  • No guarantee of reliability or ordering of packets, they may arrive out of order, be duplicated, or not arrive at all!
  • You have to manually break your data up into packets and send them
  • You have to make sure you don’t send data too fast for your internet connection to handle
  • If a packet is lost, you need to devise some way to detect this, and resend that data if necessary
