I host my personal projects (my blog, my girlfriend's blog, etc.) in private repos. These are private just because they're our stuff - everything else is public. I feel it's well worth paying for just because GitHub provides a great service (cache issues non- withstanding :P). So clearly, what is "worth it" is different for each person, but to be slightly rude it's not really up to you to decide what is worth a monthly fee or not. If you don't like it you can take the effort to set up your own remote Git repo using Gitosis on a server and then it's all yours, free as in beer, *and* private. Don't want to do that? Too much time and effort? Maybe you should pay for it. Just my 2p.
