collage vs montage

From the feature bellow from the latest IdN magazine:

The main difference between montage and collage — though the two are often difficult to separate — is that the subject matter of the elements chosen for the former is of primary importance, whereas the materials used in collage tend to be selected purely for their aesthetic effect.

This is very relevant to the type of design work that I'm putting together now... and at this stage I can't limit my approach simply to montage or collage... maybe when I'm closer to the finish I will be able to choose one or the other.
So far, using my ideas about taxonomy, I guess my work is more collage styled.
