There are some ISPs that will not route your network blocks unless they're
registered in the RADB and advertised the exact way they're registered.  I
know of places in the USA who will not accept routing updates unless its in
the RADB first.  There's also places in Australia who will ensure that if
you haven't already registered the route, they'll do it for you before they
add it to their own filter lists.

So in answer to your question, I would say the RADB is very much in use
today and if you're working for an ISP, you should definitely read up on how
to make entries in the RADB.

Cheers,

Em
