For myself it's for convenience: Most of my photos end up on my website as the embedded JPEG, I'm usually happy with the camera's built in colour balance, sharpening etc. Sometimes however an otherwise good photo needs tinkering with or I need the best quality possible, in which case I'll process the RAW file. Also, from memory the RAW section of the file is ~8MB and a small, low quality jpeg is ~300KB, so no real increase in file size.
