EIGRP connection to backbone routers

I have come across several sample scenarios where, say, Rx is connected to a backbone router and they run eigrp between them. You are then asked not to send eigrp updates from your pod (Rx) to the backbone but you must be able to recieve routes from the bb. Two different solutions seem to be forthcoming:

1) Rx: router eigrp 10
        distribute-list 10 out e0/0

access-list 10 deny any

2) Rx: router eigrp 10
        eigrp stub receive-only

If we were faced with this in the lab, provided that no other specific information was provided, do you think either solution could be used. Or have I missed some subtle difference between the two approaches?

Cheers,

Chris
