I hear what you're saying, but let me play Devil's Advocate here for a minute (and please don't take offense). Take a look at this picture:

What subtle detail can you get from what image? What additional memory can you glean from an image like that?
A photo like this:

...would seem to have much more emotional impact, no?
I'm just trying to challenge the conventional thinking that because things are digital, they're automatically worth keeping. ;-)
