Precisely. For me, the value in paying for a course or a book is not that they produce this knowledge, but that they collate it, filter through subject matter experience they already have to remove misleading additions, and add in any missing parts that may take a long time to grasp without a "Eureka!"-inducing explanation.

The service worth paying for is turning the collection of facts into usable information.

Exactly. Filtering information from misinformation is also a good selling point.
