As most have posted, shooting film is simply different to digital, unless you're enthusiastic about analogue photography you'll be much happier with the convenience of digital as long as you can backup the data to a level you see fit (I can't be bothered to follow the rigid/regular process you should go through to make sure you never lose a shot). Once you've scanned film you have both a digital & analogue capture. I don't think you need a 36MP FF DSLR though, but that's your decision.
Also as others have posted, getting a MF film scan that extracts most of the information on the film is expensive and/or time consuming, I get low res scans from the lab when they develop the film (1500x1200) for use on the web, but anything higher is significantly more expensive. Putting a 6x7 transparency on a light box is so much more satisfying.
For me though, the whole process of MF film shooting is much more enjoyable and interesting, that in itself is enough for me.
