I, too, prefer rim brakes. Have had canti, v-brake, disc. Not many of each, but enough to appreciate the mix of adjustability, low noise, ease of maintenance, lower cost.

Could be swayed, I suppose, but so far (for me) I've not seen a great need to go disc. Don't do muddy or deep-wet conditions, so don't have to worry much about the braking failing me in nasty conditions. Don't have wheelsets I swap between bikes, where disc would make that simpler. All of which would change if makers ceased selling compatible framesets, or component parts makers turned off the spigot.
