Paper defeats rock  as well as pixels.
Scissors cuts hard disk.
A bookshelf on your wall makes great insulation.
Those are my thoughts on this issue.
Sir Ralph Richardson though thinks of a similar subject this way:

"I've never been one of those stage chaps who scoff at films. I think
they're a marvelous medium, and are to the stage what engravings are to
paintings."

He's not comparing pixels to paper but a live stage performance to a film.
But of course its the same thing.
And Ansel Adams calls the making of a print like a live performance. A
concept I've always related with very directly.
