Love my cross, hate it's brakes - are discs the way to go?

2008 Brodie cyclocross with tektro cantilever brakes and they suck. I tried different pads and nothing helped much. I see two options, Mtb lever brakes or discs. My frame is disc compatiable, but I'll need to get a front fork.

Has anyone made the jump to discs on their cross. Was it worth the extra weight? Are MTB brakes the best option between wieght and braking power?

Thanks
