Here are my two cents then:

I like both, but from first impression, the Red Tubos were better than the Black Tubos when they first came out. That is my opinion. I had one of the reds recently and it is still pretty good, but I haven't had another Black Tubo in a while. I was resting them, but I guess I should break down and grab a Black Tubo soon to check how it is developing. Again, this is just my opinion.

As for availability: Pete originally had the B&Ms buy one for one when he released them last year. Most B&M stocked up in equal amounts. When I saw Pete last, he said the Black Tubos were a limited run and wasn't sure about the Reds. Recently, I saw that several local B&Ms have gotten a influx of Red Tubos because that was all they had left at the warehouse.
