Why spend more money than necessary doing something?
nobody said anything about spending more money than necessary and often times, it will pay for itself anyway.
How does a hobbyist, and - as far as I can tell, all here are hobbyists - use anything that "pays for itself"? It's all out-go to us.
do you like to do anything *else* other than use photoshop or lightroom?
using something that makes you more productive means you have more time to do *other* things.
If your previous method of post-processing left you with no time to do anything but edit, then you were a) incapable of learning how to work effectively with that method, or, b) working on images that were so badly screwed up in the taking that they had to be reconstructed in post.
lightroom does much more than photoshop does, including organization, exporting in various formats, creating web pages, direct upload to services and batch processing of images.
photoshop does more than lightroom with retouching and extensive filters, which is usually not needed for the vast majority of images. it lacks all the above features.
therefore, lightroom is almost always the more appropriate choice, eliminating multiple apps to do common tasks, which is why it's so incredibly popular.
anyone who used it would understand this.
