Film at -- oh, never mind

I'm surprised film isn't already gone. (Then again, I thought rap would be a one- or two-year phenomenon, so what do I know?) There will be a certain amount of nostalgic pining from those who miss the aesthetics of film, but it's hard to argue against the versatility and power of digital photography. One thing I've noticed, which is a little surprising, is the number of people I know who have even given up getting prints of photographs, being perfectly content to pass them around digitally.
