The value is that you get to experience more stuff for less money. There's literally a dollar amount of value there. I paid $500 to play X number of games instead of $>500 to play X number of games. If you don't consume any media at all, then obviously it isn't worth it, but don't act like it isn't worth it to people who do consume any kind of media at all. Not all of us spend our days looking at trees or replaying the same Mario game or whatever you do for fun.
