The answer won't be the same in all cases, because it depends on your
application. If you want each client to receive the message then you
should create a separate queue and binding for each one. If you want a
message to be handled by only one client then you should use one queue
and subscribe all clients to the same queue.

Compare tutorials 2 and 3 for an illustration:
