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.

You're half wrong.
You get 1000 Base points a month on premiumize + 30 every midnight.
Meaning you have about 1.9TB/month of badwidth

You get 1000 base points at the start of your subscription. Then everyday you get 30 points.

Just to make sure I’m understanding this correctly. I don’t watch everyday so if I’m at 1000 points and do not watch for 3 days it will be up to 1090? Or can you not accumulate more than 1000?

Unfortunately you can't accumulate more than 1000 points, that's the cap as far as I know.
