From what i read (there's a link somewhere around here) the information was not given up during that 'enhanced' interrogation. It was given up much later under normal interrogation techniques.
As to whether or not it's worth it if it prevents more terrorist attacks, that relies rather heavily on the idea that the person being tortured has any information to give up. I have serious doubts as to the terrorist credentials of most of the people who passed through Guantanamo's gates. Several of my countrymen were captured and tortured, sorry no interrogated with the above methods, seemingly on very little (read no) evidence.
