I have done twice as many VOR approaches as ILSs, and I've done twice as many NDBs as VORs. So yeah, I use it a bit, it's the only ground based aid at the airport I was based at for 4 years. That's Australia for ya! I actually find them to be quite comforting to fly, stooging outbound, or maybe around the DME arc, making small allowances for the coastal refraction down final, and coming out the bottom on slope and on centreline! (Or at least with minimal maneuvering required )
