A while ago I discovered that the D&D set my brother bought me was a 4e. Then I visited a local game store, and the owner looked at me funny and suggested I switch to 5e. Are there really many differences between the fourth and fifth editions? Is 5e better? I don’t want to completely give up my 4e, since my little party has enjoyed it, but I would like to know if 5e is worth it so that I can work toward buying one.

It's going to boil down to how you want to play, and what your players want to play... and, to no small extent, your budget. OSR systems are a good bit less expensive than current gen stuff as they're about furthering the hobby and not about pushing product(s).
