You should really shop by feature set. Advanced Enterprise IOS  
licenses are expensive. If you don't need all of the features present,  
you should only license the features you need.

Expanding DRAM and Flash beyond what is required for the image you  
need is also sometimes expensive, depending on which router you have.

We can't tell you which IOS does what unless we know which router  
you're using. Features change by platform. Ideally, you can figure out  
which features you need by reading through the IOS documentation at http://cisco.com/go/ios 
  , then use the feature navigator linked below to find an appropriate  
image for your router.
