If you're using them purely as a "reference database" when doing analysis,
there's no difference. If you want to study and reply games, the Megabase is the
best.

The megabase and the big database in any particular year are identical to one
another, ie they contain the same games, but there are no game commentaries in
the big database. As for the year, my gut instinct would be to pick the latest
year available, ie 2005.
