Has anybody ever joined this organisation and if so is it worth it ?

Why would you? Worth depends on what you are looking for.

In my opinion, its not worth joining them. Most of the information they provide is available on the net - and boards.

I do listen occasionally to yer man Dermot on Q102 and some of his opinions are interesting. I have heard him cross the line though and I text in to tell him so. One night they said something along the lines of "tell them you were on to us and we could bring it up on the show and that may not be helpful for them"

They "rephrased" it when I pointed out that could be classed as extortion/blackmail.

Its upto yourself though. I dont think they are officially endorsed and have no real power to do anything.
