Bottled water

Now, my question is, why do people willingly spend $1-2 on a small bottle of "spring" water, when the stuff is available completely free? NYC has always had some of the best tap water anywhere, so why so many water bottles?
We have a water service because the local water is (a) nasty tasting with a slightly metallic taste, and (b) from time to time launches illnesses throughout our fair city.

My favorite water is evian, which I drink at room temperature. Any other water, I chill or disguise with lime or emer-gen-c. I can no longer justify spending $2.39 a bottle, since we discovered we spent about $40 a week on bottled water, pre-water service.
