Personally, I use Amtrak for most of my travel to/from Boston (from Long Island). My parents prefer it because they think it’s safer, so they help pay. Basically, if I’m travelling on a random weekend, I’ll try to take the BoltBus and save some money, but if it’s a major travel time, say around Thanksgiving or Christmas, I take Amtrak, because I’ve heard horror stories of the bus taking 6-8 hours because of bad traffic, accidents, etc.

Oh, and about Amtrak rewards… At the rate I’m going, I’ll have enough for a one way trip by the time I graduate… so not that helpful.
