For commercial purposes, pretty much.

There are still some crazy bastards (such 
as myself) shooting MF and LF film.

And there may still be a few lazy bastards 
sitting on piles of ancient slides and 
negatives, and have yet to scan them.

As it stands today, a $3000 DSLR from 
Canon can more or less match the quality 
of a scan of the smallest medium-format 
film area (6x4.5 cm).
