It's true that either of the soils you mentioned can be made to work, but it's not at all difficult to build a soil that will work particularly well. It all depends on what you're willing to put into your growing efforts, but since you're asking questions in an effort to learn, I'm guessing that it is of some importance to you that your plants do as well as they can.

A good understanding of soils and how water behaves in soils will go a long way toward improving your successes and the satisfaction you get from tending ALL your plants in containers, not to mention how much easier it makes things. If you're interested, you can find a lot of information, some basic - some detailed, here:
