I agree with those who say "So What." I use both. Each excels in certain areas, and some of the fears about the loss of digital files are ungrounded. For instance, I have writable cds that are 10 years old, and they are readable just fine. If you look into this, you'll see that some brands of cds are much more reliable than others. Additionally, the costs of redundant hard drives and online storage have come down enough that they're very viable options. Currently, I use the latter two, as cds and dvds require too much time to burn, at least for me. As someone else has said. Use what you like. Look into storage/permanence issues, whether with film, prints or digital files, and do what makes sense for you. Why waste time trying to convince others that you're tools are the best tools?
