6. Best option for non-jailbreakers and for those who can't jailbreak.
7. Apple keeps a record of all your free purchases so if you restored your device to factory or erased everything all you need to do is login to itunes and view your purchases and choose which one you would like to sync. hassle free!
8. You can change your account details anytime, even change your country location.
9. You can create as many Apple ID as you like and set different locations for each.
