There is one camp that contends more lighting the better. The other camp is lighting should help signify what you are on the road. Usually that pertains to "what is the purpose of having them". If you feel it is something cool to have then buy em if you got the money.
I kind of belong in both camps, slightly more in the second though.
I have plenty of lights, but, I tend to follow vehicle lighting guidelines, white to the front, red to the rear, amber on the sides.

As far as the Hokey Spoke lights and the Monkey Electric lights go, they are not my cup of coffee.
