directX upgrades more frequently ｔｈａｎ ｏｐｅｎｇｌ？

[qwo]

anybody know why directx upgrates more frequently?

opengl latest version is 2.1
directx latest version is 10.0

compairing quality is directx better than opengl?
because people say directx 10's quality is better than 9.0c
but i see 9.0c is almost the same as opengl2.0

thanks
