Default Thinking of going spread spectrum

I am looking at getting a new radio. I'm still on a buddy-box for my glow plane, however, I'm beginning to collect a few planes (both electric and glow) and I need a radio that will store multiple planes (I'm currently using the plain vanilla Futaba 4 channel). I'm thinking of going spread-spectrum. I just read the review on the new Futaba 7 channel 2.4 Ghz radio. What are the basic differences in this radio and the Spektrum 7 channel radio? The look to be about the same price for everything involved. I was thinking of going Futaba because I already have a Futaba buddy-box and it should hook up relatively simple. Is there a reason to buy Spektrum over Futaba?
