> wondering if I'm really getting the best prices Curious why you assume you were getting the best price before?

  But "before" you did not have an option and thus the need to wonder! "One who has a watch always knows what time is it. One who has two watches is never certain about anything."

    Yes, the paradox of having too many choices. Sounds like a good thing, but it causes anxiety.

      Making a choice means making decisions. Making decisions can definitely be taxing, especially when yourself or your social circle insists that decisions were "good", "smart", or otherwise met a standard of excellence. Suddenly you end up in a situation where you need to prove yourself, else the smartass cousin or your own resentful self will constantly remind you how you played the fool when you could have made a much better choice, obvious in hindsight. An agent (human or machine) that chooses the tickets for you because you can't be bothered with such mundane trivialities may be quite desirable for some.
