1. freighters are cheaper.
2. regrowing the colonists can be done constantly. the time your bombers spend travelling between point A and point B is spent doing nothing. The freighters can breed.
3. the freighters can have jammer 50's and some sheilds slapped on them - this would increase survivability and coupled with a high battle speed this will give your freighters a better chance than those super heavy bombers.
4. You don't NEED 300 super freighters to do this, 300 is just the maximum required. Not all that many planets have 100% capacity and 100% value, and more importantly if you don't have to invade EVERY single turn then you can use 1/2 the number of ships.

All in all I figure the freighters are the better option.

Cheaper, quicker, better planet recovery, increased survivability.
