Default New ShopNotes book worth it?

Did anyone get "120+ Shop-Tested Tips & Techniques" from
ShopNotes/Woodsmith? Is it worth the $10?

I've usually been pleased with almost every issue of ShopNotes, but
I've seen a few "tips" books that were kinda lame.

SWMBO brought it home for me and I've had a chance to thumb through the
magazine, but not the CD. Not bad, there is always something new to learn in
woodworking and if you use just one "tip" it's cheap twice the price. The
tall featherboard on the cover qualifies.

I have it. If you are subscriber, you already have the 120 tips as it is
basically a compilation from back issues. It's nice to have them in one
place, but I didn't learn anything new as I've been a subscriber for 10
years.
