When MR first started all the partner awards had a 2% exchange ratio. That didn't last very long though.

I agree. MR is truly a sorry program with just a 1% exchange value. The only time it's half-way decent is when they have a bonus to transfer points into miles (DL or CO for 15-20%+). I try to charge on SPG AX due to the FF transfer bonus.
