I generally like to play/record without a click track; I like the flexibility in tempo. But, if I do start to stray too far off-tempo, I am not opposed to using a click. However, I do generally prefer a more-organic feel, it tends to swing more.

And, yet, I used a click (2 clicks) as an instrument in this song:
"Here"
That is two tracks of click that you hear in the beginning (and throughout), autotuned to be in-key).

So, clicks are good, depending upon how you use them.
