I don't mind downloading and building tarballs, but when you've got 3000
packages installed on your machine it's nice to have a system that
automatically upgrades them when new versions are released, rather than
having to check all 3000 of them every week or so.

Or do you think we should all roll our own distributions?

Also, thousands of Debian users will never even know wmctrl exists
unless it's in the distribution.
