I went with the regular - I did not think the high price of the advanced equaled the extra features.

I used Ozone 4 for a few years to master my recordings (voice over/narration).
I found their guide to Mastering with Ozone particularly helpful:

The problem is, I'm not an audio genius, so while sometimes my results with Ozone were great, often they were not.

Waves plug-ins, on the other hand, are perfect for idiots like me. Now that I've gone over to a Waves-only mastering chain, my results are great almost every time. They are more expensive, but definitely worth it.
