As good or better depending on the blend. I used to keep a grinder and fresh grind for each pot. At one point I had Kona shipped direct from the plantation, roasted a weeks worth at a time manually and ground that fresh daily.
The sealed pod keeps the coffee fresh. The pressurized system forcing the hot water through the grounds and making each cup fresh makes a huge difference. Especially on the second or third cup of the day.
Toss in creme fresh and real sugar and you are looking at a great cup of coffee every time. Of course it depends on the variety. Surprisingly the Starbucks varieties are actually quite good. They taste like burnt crap if you go to an actual Starbucks.
