Worth every penny. And Barnes and Noble deserves its fair share of disgust for filing counter patent-infringement suits. And since BN now own Fatbrain, so BookPool is my vendor of choice currently for price-conscious book shopping. For niche publishers with small circulation, I try to buy direct from the publisher (e.g. Manning) so that they actually get more of the money I'm spending anyway to keep publishing that kind of work. And AllBookstores.com is now offering it at the same price as Amazon. So now it doesn't cost me anything to show my disgust for software and business model patents. As for the Amazon kickback, well, you have a sucky publisher for not giving you more of your directly generated sales.
