Multicast can cross VLAN boundaries, UDP broadcast doesn't.
Also, keep in mind that broadcasting simply doesn't exist in IPv6, so you will likely have to deal with multicasting eventually.

Perhaps. At least to let multicast traffic cross VLANs/subnets. But you have to configure them to setup your VLANs anyway...
