If you're willing to touch it, you can do so with freely downloaded content.
Why spend 38 Euro then?

And it does matter, how much one spends. This obviously directly links to the number of books, apps, movies, ... one would have to check for possible flaws. Today, for example, I would have to check 17 Android apps, 5 iTunes TV episodes, 7 Kindle eBooks, 3 iOS apps and 11 PS Vita Games. Lots of these I won't touch for weeks. Until then, my backlog will have added up to hundreds of items. And I simply wouldn't want to end up on vacation with apps that aren't running, books that have formatting errors or TV episodes lacking the ending...

Years ago I've enjoyed, converting books, editing metadata and such.
Today, quite frankly, I simply would consider it a waste of time. That's why I hire specialists, that's why I buy from pros.
