The benefit is being able to display 3+ different ads on rotation that change every minute or two. That, and labor is cheaper when they're not 50ft off the ground

The digital ones are also visible at night so the advertiser gets more impressions and the billboard ad company can charge more.

So are the printed ones. They just have flood lights pointing at them.
