Vistek actually does some really nice printing, I recommend trying them out.

I agree that for strictly commercial purposes, going digital is definitely the preferred way to go these days, but personally I still get a lot more enjoyment and wow-factor out of my 120 film shots compared to my digital ones. Digital sensors may have exceeded film resolution, but I think film still renders light transitions and hilights in a much more pleasing way. For me it has nothing to do with "warmth".
Btw, not unlike vinyl, film photography has actually had somewhat of a resurgence the last few years. It's never going to be what it was, but I think it still has a place.
