To burn DVDs ;) CD burners are technically not capable of burning DVDs.

i know that you can back up more data, but what other purpose is there.

Besides burning data DVDs that hold more, you can create Video DVDs to watch in your DVD player. The DVD Video format is superior to VCD or SVCD, and you can only create them with a DVD burner.
