Are Tungsten Beads Really Better?

Tungsten has become a staple material in many nymph and streamer flies, coming in many forms including bead heads, cone heads, and dumbells. With all the attention tungsten gets these days it begs the question, are "old school" brass beads/cones irrelevant? We certainly don't think so, in fact, there are flies we wouldn't tie with anything else!
