I'd say that you should form some hypotheses about what would be most valuable, and then do several small releases to test those hypotheses. One of my clients releases 1-3 times a week because they want to put a lot of things out there to see what actually delivers value. When features take off they invest more in stories that are based on similar notions about what would be useful. Within that framework, though, they tend to pick low-cost ones, as they want to test as many hypotheses as possible. Heh.
