Interestingly, this part of the Forum gets hardly any traffic. You wonder if film is even 'deader' than we feared a year or so ago. Film processing is becoming more problematic too.
One key point is that throughout the 20th Century (sic) collectors and enthusiasts could carry on using vintage cameras (e.g. 1930 Leica rangefinders, Victoria plate cameras, 1960's SLRs) as the fundmental technology hadnt changed and film was still available and processible. Just look at the longevity of 135 format.
But, how long do we have now.....
