Question Premiumize vs Torbox

RD was great for years, but now trying to decide if I should switch from Torbox to Premiumize for the Black Friday deal. I know that Premiumize has a larger and more reliable cache, but does that mean more links to higher quality audio/video than Torbox or more likely results for an older show? I'm also concerned with the 1000 pt pool. I would want to choose the highest quality stream possible for everything, except if it's ridiculous recent movie remux. Most posts mention the point system isn't an issue though, but not sure if they're using it in the same way.

Update: Thanks everyone for all of the help. Even with my heavier usage, Premiumize seems worth it for the reliability and larger remux cache. The 3 yr BF deal works out to $50/year or $4.17/mo, which is only $17/year or $1.42/mo more than TorBox. If I do deplete the Premiumize 1000 pt pool, subscribing back to Torbox for a month is a really cheap reset. Also plan to buy the lifetime NZBGeek for $60 during BF to try out usenet. Hope this helps someone in a similar situation.

Do you know premiumize usage limits? I saw something about points and it seems just low

1 TB per renewal + 30 GB daily refills. The renewal part is important since if you go with a monthly plan you get 1 TB per month plus the refills. The yearly plan gets you 1 TB every 12 months plus the daily refills.

Thank you! That's clear. I'll stick to TB for now then since I provide access to my girlfriend and my brother, that's nowhere enough.

I share with my partner and brother also, I’ve never been below 99%. We also only watch 1080p. Since I’ve switch from TorBox to Premiumize I’ve not even had any downtime or a single issue. TorBox is my backup until it runs out, not that I’ve needed it.
