Does it really make any difference? Is it worth the pain? Seems to me that only players in the USA strugle with it.

That's just the thing. If you play with a good embouchure, there shouldn't BE pain when you try double lip. If there is a lot of pain in your upper lip, it's a sign you could be biting too hard on the reed, and that maybe you should try a lighter reed and less "biting". I play a light enough reed on my mouthpieces that I barely have my bottom lip touching the reed at all. Virtually no pressure from my jaw transferring to the reed.
