If you want to use the points for other travel related activities, or for merchandise, keep them with Amex MR. You can also link your Amex MR account with your amazon account, and use your MR points directly for Amazon purchases. Keep in mind that 1 Amex MR point equals between 0.5-1 cent. So you are getting less value for MR.

Thanks for the advise. I eventually transferred the points to SPG points then transferred to Marriott points. This way I got about 70k Marriott points because of the 1:3 conversion rate from SPG to Marriott.
