Writer's Market books?

Does anyone have the current (2012) version of the Writer's Market or Children's Writer's and Illustrator's Market books?

I see quite a lot of comments on Amazon about both of these, indicating that one or more important indexes are missing this year, and about sloppy editing in general. I wonder if either of them would be worth buying? The last time I bought these books was probably 1995.

Is there anything online that would approximate the same usefulness for market information?

I have the 2009 one (Writer's Market). I think. (I don't know where it is at the mo!) And to be honest, I hardly ever used it. I think there's just as much information available on the net.

Depends what info you're after though, I suppose.

I've got the 2012 Writers' and Artists' Yearbook, if you're after anything specific from there?
