It seems like it'd be pretty easy to write your own trivia questions by permitting yourself to surf Wikipedia for a while and extract facts from the articles. What's the advantage to trivia questions you don't write yourself - just speed, or something else too?

Just speed. At two minutes per trivia question it would take a full day to make another set of 250.
