Somebody could use packer and publish the artifacts on a website, were I can download the desired image and have it running in 5 minutes. That's what I'd pay for.

You could basically schedule/cron/whatever the job to build once a month/week/day on your machine and it will always dump the up-to-date virtual machine in the location you choose. I should also point out that Packer is the program that they use to create Vagrant boxes.
