Is a Filibuster ever good?

Is there ever a good reason to use a filibuster? It doesn't seem right to me that 41 senators can stop the will of the majority based solely on traditional rules. Can anyone give me a good reason for the filibuster (I am all for delaying voting under discussion is done but I am specifically referring to preventing voting just because a vote wouldn't go your way).
