As well as immediate feedback ;-) , I think the two biggest advantages

I've never been able to believe that the cost is quite zero, though. Not
for the pictures you want to keep (whether you print them or not),
anyway. Storing & maintaining data on a digital medium costs something,
too - especially if you want any kind of security.
Care to make a real estimate of your cost per picture?
Another minor problem is that the cost of printing with in inkjet or
whatever is (as I understand it) actually higher than what you pay for
normal prints at a lab. But perhaps the cost of *good* prints comes out
as lower?
