WCF, XML WebService, Legacy Techonology

Question

So I am about to create a XML webservice where I send an XML form from the client to the server in ASP.net. While looking at how to do it I see that we have to use WCF to create XML webservice

So the question is do I need to use WCF for now on? Or can I still create the XML webservice without using WCF. Which way is better? I am using .NET framework 4.5. Is there another option that I am not aware of.

Personally, I would prefer WCF (the "new" way) over ASMX (the "old" way - ref: the link you provided to the MSDN site)
