Why don't you pay travel agents?

I'm curious, why is it that you choose not to utilize the services of travel agents when planning your trips? Could it be that you prefer the convenience and flexibility of booking everything yourself online? Or do you find that the fees charged by travel agents are not worth the value they provide? Additionally, do you have a particular strategy or approach when it comes to researching and booking your own travel arrangements? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic.
