Book Summary Services - Worth It?

[Tapp001]

One complaint I have heard around the forum is that they have a never ending backlog of books to read. This got my problem solving senses itching, so I started to look around for business book summarizing services. Lo and behold, there seems to be quite a few big players in this business. Even a few who are more focused on self-help books.

However, I looked at a few summaries, and still looked pretty long. Plus, they were often structured along the same lines as a book, which is pretty inefficient if your goal is pure knowledge extraction. I wasn't that impressed.

My question to you then, as both a potential client of and competitor to these services, is 'Are these services worth anything?' Have you had experience with them, or found them useful? Are they great, or do they just provide wantrepreneurs with more 'learning' excuses that delay action?
