Which is more "reliable": Airmatic or ABC Suspension?

Through my research I've seemed to find mixed answers to that question, maybe slightly leaning to ABC. I was wondering if anyone could offer some info on that. Also, would you say one is more expensive to repair/maintain?

Thanks.

ABC are more reliable but very difficult to find standard on S600 or AMG cars. Difficult to find on S500 or S430. Later airmatic (2003+) are more reliable compare to earlier ones.
