I believe some of the BM card problems stem from the use of cheaper components. I was told by a chip manufacturing rep at NAB that AJA uses better components than BM which account for my experience of having more jitter issues with long cable runs that made the BM card unusable when an AJA card worked fine with the existing cable.

The facility I work at has around 30+ decklink cards that have been working without issue for up to 6 years. Can't remember the last time one had to be replaced, but I think at least one has been.
We were an FCP facility until switching to Premiere a couple of years ago. We have a handful of AJA cards too, but had too many problems getting them to play nice with Premiere (edit stations using AJA breakout cards/boxes were far less stable than those using BMD, possibly due to driver issues).
I understand that the situation is different for Avid systems though.
