If your workflow and process allow you the time to get by without using a light meter, that's great for you. Many photographers find a light meter to be an invaluable tool allowing them quickly set up initial exposures, set lighting ratios more accurately, utilize incident light readings instead of reflected readings, and greatly reduce the trial and error process. If you're suggesting digital photography has made light meters useless, then I disagree. That you don't use one it simply a matter of preference and you simply haven't explored the uses of the device enough to make it of any utility to yourself.
