Labels - O365 vs AIP
The way forward is the "unified" labels that you can configure in the SCC, but they surely are taking their time with it (and already made a big change as to what "unified" is supposed to be). So unless you need any specific feature that only AIP labels currently support and don't have any time to wait for them to port it, I'd say stick with the O365/SCC labels.
Is the AIP client still relevant?
I am starting testing it on my computer and the add-ins in Outlook, Word,...look nice to make it easy for users. But the labels that the client show are the AIP default labels available in Azure AD, not the ones from O365 Security & Compliance...
Yes, it is useful for many scenarios, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/information-protection/rms-client/aip-client for some detailed information
