The other reason that companies like to use AWS is for liability. If you don't own the hardware you're not as responsible for the physical security and maintenance for tons of servers distributed around the world. At least that's what my employer likes about it. For personal use or smaller companies, I def don't see the use case of AWS just out of price and complexity.
