It's worse than useless because it doesn't absorb lower frequencies, leaving you with all the lovely mud. I don't know how they get away with it.

2-4" of high density mineral wool like Owens Corning 703 or Knauf RS60 makes a decent broadband absorber - and it's cheaper.

Yes 703 is a high density fiber glass but I believe has very similar absorption characteristics as mineral wool

Thx Kev and Moon for the clarification. I need to invest in some room treatment.
