Think you can summarise it as this: Both are ok, digital is nice if you have to deal with finding rare glitches. Analog scopes on the other hand can show you "misbehaving" signals (too high frequency) which a digital scope might not. Also if you're working on mains voltage analog scopes are sometimes nicer, since they to be easier if you want to repair the frontend you inevitably blow up. (Which we've all done in our early years, don't deny it.) Overall for the average user though, digital is the way to go simply for the automatic measurements and advanced trigger capabilities.
