Personally I try to use light_spot more than just a normal light entity. You get more realistic lighting I think.

Unless your map is lit entirely by floating light bulbs with no shades, light_spot usually produces a more realistic lighting pattern.

Normal light can be used to make something look like it's giving off light from itself, like I'm pretty sure the Excursion Funnel sources use a normal light entity to glow blue or orange.
