There's also an aesthetic problem -- digital video simply doesn't look like
film. Film looks "softer" and more "abstract." Video (analog or digital),
regardless of its resolution, has a hard-edged "reality" that looks too
"real" to be a movie. Who wants to watch TV in a movie theater?

People have been saying something similar about digital and analog
sound reproduction.  True, vinyl records are still around.  Sort of.
