I'm basing this on two things - Ryanair marketing says you get to select extra legroom premium seats with their new business plus product and SeatGuru says these rows have extra legroom (although we know that's not always accurate).

I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to fly them, but if they happened to serve a route I needed to go and they were the best option schedule wise I'd now be willing to give them a go, whereas previously (pre-2014) they'd be last resort after looking at indirect options.
