It is worth reading, it's probably the most succinct description of society (consumer/industrial society anyway). Things have changed since it was written, but I don't think the situation has so fundamentally changed that an entirely new interpretation has supplanted it.

Print it off, it's like 50 pages. The point is that it's free so by default is worth OP's money.
