RMAN - To Catalog or not to catalog, that is the question

We are getting ready to start using RMAN on several new 9i Linux databases.
I guess the first question would be is RMAN really that much better then using home grown dynamic hot backup scripts? We have developed these for our Oracle/NT environment and they seem to work fine. The second question would be should we use a recovery catalog? The catalog seems to add a lot of complexity to the setup and to a disaster recovery plan.  

Thanks!
Ron
