Choosing one SQL collation over the other?

So I am reading this article thats been several times when the subject of selecting a collation comes up, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144260.aspx

However, I still have questions.  I have some 2005 DB's that ive inherited that use Latin1_General_Bin.

The default of which is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS I believe, so Im still not really sure why you would choose one style over the other, except maybe case sensitivity and or support for unicode characters.  Is that pretty much it?
