So what is more preferred..it kind of sounds like more of whatever suits your fancy.
Depending on how long you plan to have your beer in storage and what kind of plastic you're considering you will likely have to worry about "plasticy" flavors and oxygen permeability issues with plastic bottles. If you're content with your beer in the plastic and you're using it already there's no reason not to stick with it, but I'd rather perfect my fermentation/avoid the bottle bombs and go to a dark glass bottle if I were you.
