I think you are missing the point.
People are paying you because of your skills, your chops, your attention to detail. Just because everyone and their mother will have video editing software for cheap now doesnt mean they will be good video editors!
Maybe a better example is cars. Almost everybody has a car, they are cheap and easy to get. Just because you own a car, and drive it every day even does not mean you are qualified to drive a race car in the Daytona 500.
