Remember what film format used to be peddled to the masses? 626 cartridges, and worse, the 110 format (good for blowups to driver's license size). Digital will eat that market up once the printing is convenient and as cheap. Digital printing is easy. Just a litttle slow. The other major problem is that the inks in these home printers are just not stable. Epson has some new inks out that are very very good, available only for some of their printers. I see that the average person will be doing more of this themselves and all the print processing places will SLOWLY go the way of dinasaurs as people can edit and remove their poor prints themselves and only request the ones they really want when they do choose to have a lab do it.
