So the market has lilttle if any bearing on the economics and sustainabiity of film?
Now I'm confused.
There is a market for film. It isn't the traditional market but a market none the less. If film becomes too expensive for established companies to manufacture & market It is entirely conceivable there will be those who will coat their own glass plates or pioneer technologies to efficiently produce smaller runs of emulsions.
In which case film isn't dying. It is (or will be) evolving.
If there is a market.
Declaring film "dead" and waiting for someone to come along and bury it good and deep is contra to the interests of most people here, I'd think.
