old pads VS new pads

I did a few searches and nothing came up. So how are the newer pads better ?.

1. Are they softer ?
2. Are they more sensitive ?

Are they worth the $200 ?

please... this has been answered numerous times... don't be THAT lazy.

Im yet to read an answer rather 10 pages of a debate on the topic. Id love to hear from someone that upgraded from the old>new.

the new pads are better because the sensors won't start failing on you. the old pads start failing or having issues with sensitivity over time. now they're finally built like the pads on every other MPC. that's all it really comes down to.
