Version 1.33 seems to have a newer update system because I won't have to choose between Malwarebytes.org or SecurityWonks.net. What are the differences between the old and the new?

Version 1.33 updates through a new Content Delivery Network with over 900 mirrors. This helps minimize errors by making sure that you never update from the same mirror twice.

Corrupt databases mainly, but at least with one of the old mirrors before the upgraded network, there were issues where users couldn't always get definitions due to connection issues etc, or there would be a dropped/slow connection resulting in database corruption.

You got it, for some reason (at least at one point) there were frequent issues with the SecurityWonks.net server.
