When I first created an automated build system for OpenELEC I had two reasons: Official releases from the OpenELEC team were infrequent There were no official SD card images (just .bz2 release bundles) Looking now at sources.openelec.tv I don’t think point 1 is true any more.

OpenELEC with media_build
Update (13 Nov 2012): Since OpenELEC is now on a recent kernel there’s no point to media_build any more, and I won’t be doing any further builds.
