Modules ? Yes or no.

Actually i dont need them reused. i was just wondering what's this module thing all about in CI, but i guess noone can actually explain what the difference / advantage of using it is. I was just asking for opinion if the concept of building such application is good, or even better, get suggestions how should i write my application in general, to make it as easy in future as possible. The main reason why i'm asking this is cuz i downloaded some CMS portals made in CI, and i just saw modules there, there was no controllers, models... and i was like :ohh: what the heck, why is it all in modules and what benefit do they get out of it to make it like that... either way thank you very much for your reply. If anyone else has something to comment here it would be really nice.
