Default MLCS bits -- how good?

I'm going to assume, from the near-constant stream, of catalogs that I,
a non-customer, get from MLCS that they have some sort of loyal
following ... or else Penn-State has very deep pockets.

As I am considering fleshing out my tiny collection of Ryobi and HF
bits, can anyone comment, from experience, on the relative value of the
MLCS brand?

I'm looking to begin doing small boxes and freehand work and not certain
if I need to step up the quality of my bits or not. The R/HF stuff
cuts wood. Will I really see a noticeable and usable difference in the
cut surfaces in exchange for the higher bit price? Will I gain enough in
wear to overcome the price differential? I'm looking to buy 'quality',
not bragging rights.

Bill
