Is it worth it to pay $30 more to get the Beast over the Addiction? What's the real difference between the two shoe models, other than price?

A syllogism to illustrate your quandry.

The Beast is like the Addiction, only it has more bells and whistles. Its cushier, it has a more sculpted fit, its got some snazzier looks, but functionally it isn't much different.
Beast is worth the extra $30. I've been wearing Brooks exclusively for a while now and worn a bunch of pairs of both Addiction and Beast, and Beast has vastly superior forefoot cushioning and is more durable. I only wear Beast now.
