Difference between Vm role (PAAs) and Vm (IAAS)

The biggest difference is one is paas, another is IAAs,

For example: You can specify the instance number of load balance just by simploy setting the number in the configuration of VM role.

So, that is the PAAs adventages. but I thought it is part of paas, because as MS announced, user shocould be reponsable for the system updating of VM image. I think it shoshould be done by vendor.
