We once had both, mainly because at the time, Squeeze was reportedly better at MPEG-2 DVD encoding. AME improved enough in later vesions, and our level of DVD production all but disappeared so that it wasn’t an issue any longer. Also, back then we could use the DeBugMode Frameserver to enable Squeeze encoding directly from a Premiere timeline without having to encode an intermediate. Not even sure that the Frameserver even exists any longer. I believe the last I saw of it, it was working with CS6, so if you decide to go with Squeeze, certainly save yourself the time of creating intermediate files by using it.
