Do you think Digital Photography will REALLY replace film?   

Well, I miss Velvia...

My first camera was a Nikon F75. The sale woman told me the digital camera would never beat the film camera. I think about it today and feel it was kind of awkward. 1 year later I had a Nikon D70s

You got away easy. My first digital camera was a Leaf DCB 2 camera. It cost $36,000. I had to drag my clients into shooting digitally. They all thought film was better. This was 1996. About 2 years later, I shot my last sheet of film. The point is that in photography you have to try to be out ahead of where the business is going, or you get left behind. All of my competitors who didn't get into digital are out of business. To bring it back to HDR, it's a technique to learn and know about, and to use in the right circumstance, but it's not something to base your whole look or style on, because when the buyers get tired of it, they will get tired in a big way.

Isn't that true of nearly everything a photographer learns or develops?

Yes
