Quoting topherice

DiVX and XViD are cool and all, but why bother these days when you can get DVD+RW for $150-$200 and media in bulk for about $1/disc.

Because I wish to leave my vids on my home network so I can stream them over my network media device, and so I don't have to deal with a stack of more media. xVids will save me some space.
