Why? Because we got an amazing deal on a set of outdoor speakers (price reduced by over $100) and for $20 I got a 9 year full replacement warranty. Yup, if the speakers are not working 8 years from now, I can walk in and get a new pair. I didn't believe it either until I read all the fine print. Considering these are outdoor speakers and will be exposed to elements, it is very likely that they will have some problems in the future. So we went for it.
