It's because it's inconvinient (hence more fun) to use that some people
buy them; just like manual transmission cars.

Seems to be the fun of being limited to a fixed number of shots,
not knowing what you get. In addition, the look of these shots
is like "survival mission" (crappy image quality), i.e. appeals
to nostalgic people.
