Bedding Brakes

I've heard pros and cons on this for a long time. Doesn't this process happen naturally over time anyway? I recently replaced brakes and rotors on my TV. I did not do any bedding and braking seems just fine. Do they do this on new cars? Probably not.
Back to my days as a Learjet mechanic. The lead mechanic decided he needed to bed the brakes after four new brakes and four new tires were installed. He did several high-speed taxis with max braking, but apparently didn't allow enough cool down time between. Caught all four brakes on fire, burned up the tires and caused damage to the struts. Very expensive.
