Yes it is always great to learn what other people are doing. I have no issue over the costs with paying for all these services as it is almost always cheaper than building/setting up the same tools yourself, the issue I have is the lack of skills/understanding that going down this route encourages. I like to build everything myself so I learn, not because this is the most efficient way to run things. When something breaks (it always does at some point) it means I can fix it. There is also the other point which is I love learning about all this stuff :)
