Well, you can highlight the text in a PDF, copy it to another document, fill in lines in PDF forms, search the text (though the search function in PDFs often seems to be as broken as the scrolling is...), etc... you can't do that with static images. If only the things actually WORKED and those benefits were worth it... but as it is I would rather just have the image file with plain text copy for copying and stuff.
Honestly, if web browsers worked like Reader does, the internet would be utterly unusable... scrolling that slow? Who would bother?
