Sure you could, if you have hours to take the pictures and clean up the OCR.

But by using the hot key tool you wind up with files on a storage card ready to feed into your favorite OCR tool in minutes. Being nice crisp perfectly base lined text the OCR output is 100% accurate with no touch up required.

I believe content providers call that "way too easy to rip us off".
