Well the main problem is people can nick them and/or easily copy them. And a benefit is the ease of sharing. There are other pluses and minuses, but surely you must have had discussions about the subject in the class though? :shrug:

thanks Redhed, i neglected to mention that it is an online course so there isnt a lot of discussing done :) but just those points you made will be a great help
 
Another plus (for me) is the immediacy with which a print can be produced after taking a shot, not to mention the ease with which modifications can be made to an image (not always a good thing).
 
one point from me is that it is very easy to corrupt the file (done that a few times :()

easy to make one or more backups of huge numbers of photos - so with a good strategy you can really protect your images (multiple copies, offsite etc)

also, immediacy of transmission of a photo (and hence the idea or info it contains). Charlotte Church (for example) seen staggering out of a nightclub etc, can be splashed over the front pages of the world in next to no time
 
of course......brilliant! thats what these forums are all about, thanks Chris
