Drag and drop carts a good idea?

While it's a cool GUI feature - I fail to see the merits in employing drag and drop for shopping cart systems. A simple click of the "Add to cart" button is much more simple than the click, drag, and release to do exactly the same thing. You can see an example of a drag and drop GUI facility here:

Everyone knows what the "Add to cart" button does - why complicate it?
