What's the difference?

I was going to buy some of the "new, latest and greatest" Ande backcountry. I can find clear and pink in Vt but no backcountry. So I looked on their website and it says that backcountry is one of the colors that Premium is made in. The following is pasted from their site:

"The abrasion resistance of Ande has always been one of our major selling points. We sell two lines: Premium and Tournament. Tournament is available in Green and High Visibility Fluorescent Yellow.
Our Premium is our production monofilament for the vast majority of anglers. It is the same quality as our Tournament line. It is a medium soft monofilament with excellent tensile and knot strength and is very abrasion resistant. Premium comes in Clear, Pink, Dark Green, Gun Metal, Hi-Vis, Green Envy and Back Country Slate Blue, in tests from 2 to 400 lbs. Also available in both 50 yd. and 100 yd. leader coils in heavy tests from 30 to 400. Also available are 400 yd. coils of Black mono."

So is there really a difference?

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
