What do you make of digital photography?

I'm so angry about the digital world. I have actually gone the other way now and am taking pictures with an 8x10, like they did in the 19th century.
My love for photography is so deep-seated that when you go up to a photograph and put your eyes a quarter of an inch away from it, I want to see that resolution. I want to see the beauty of the medium. and when you digitize. I don't care who makes that print, even if it's the greatest printer in the world, you will get that fuzzy, pointillist effect. It's like looking at polyester and then looking at silk".
