sure just download the 20mb file each time instead of just letting an auto patcher that has 1mb download the 4,5mb patch ...

Except for:
1) You cant use a multicore CPU fix with that file and most people out there NEED it.
2) Updating spellfiles is less than one tenth of the things you can do with my installer. (fix visors, fix underwater sounds, customize spellgems, gives a whole new UI plus a Velious UI not available anywhere else, fix in game maps, allows you to change resolution and windowed mode easily, allows you to change login screen, shrink the install by removing unnecessary files, change battle music to classic, fix multi core CPU issues)
3) Most people dont want to run anything on top of their game (even though its just a launcher, most prefer to double click and go straight into the game).
4) My installer is way easier to set up since it requires no input from user. Just pick the directory, impossible to mess up.
5) The 20mb download on ISP's PCs takes about 5 seconds.. hardly a difference from 3 seconds it would take to download a 4.5mb files.
6) Some people play on PCs that get wiped after logout (some work environments and public PCs at cafe's etc).. they carry my installer on a USB stick and are able to get going within seconds, not possible with the auto patcher, since it would have to be set up manually every time.
And finally.. by each time you mean once every couple of months?
Id say in terms of what you get to size ratio... you are much better of spending double the amount of seconds downloading to get ten times the amount of features, some of which are exclusive and cant be gained anywhere else.
