There might be some information on the internet about this.
ABS is harder to print but is more consistent in formulation and more durable once printed (less sensitive to heat and less brittle), it's also easier to sand.

ABS is a more professional quality polymer and as such requires more professional handling.
I am very happily printing with PLA since over four years.
