As other FTers have already pointed out, a number of your "facts" are incorrect.

The biggest assumption you seem to be making is that e-rewards is some kind of recent program that will die as soon as people realize how "worthless" it is.

I've been a member for nearly SEVEN years -- since the year 2000. While the program does have its limitations and annoyances, I've found it to be a reliable source of Hilton HHonors points, which can be redeemed once every 90 days. Also, over the years, the program has actually been greatly improved, with the addition of far more rewards partners, rewards at different levels, etc. It used to be that Hilton points were the only thing I found worth redeeming, but now there are a number of airline rewards, Borders Rewards, etc. that are worthwhile as well. @:-)

Make no mistake, I've been very critical of e-rewards a number of times on some of the numerous threads on it in this forum. But the improvements in the program are real.

And BTW, if you truly think it is "worthless," there is a handy "Cancel Membership" button on the "Manage My Account" page.
