Well, these ARE the way if you really need to ship something that cannot go
into the distribution repository. Bypassing the whole packaging system is
not.
Of course, depending on who makes the PPAs, the packages can be really
really crappy, but users know that and do prefer packages from a reviewed
repository or at least from a PPA done by a decent packager. (Packages done
by upstream tend to be the crappiest of all.)
