If you're a note-taker, yes. They're slower to highlight and type in your notes.
For 99% of the most commonly used functions by regular consumers of e-reading (book selection, page turning, press to look up word in dictionary), infra-red screens are more than adequate.
Is the capacitive screen trade-off of inferior lighting (at night) and milky screen (by daylight) worth it to provide better note-taking? Personally, I prefer peace of mind while reading and frustration when highlighting to peace of mind when highlighting and frustration while reading. YMMV.
