The ticking sound is the mechanism, this is what allows you to freewheel (move without pedaling) without the pedals spinning round.

Freehubs are generaly better, as a freewheel up front has alot more forse applied to it, where the forse applied to a freehub (with it being on the back) is alot less as it's lost in the chain, and the gearing.
