Why stick to such an old file system when NTFS is a superior system?

It depends on the use or application. (FAT/FAT32 works fine on flash
drives, and where the greatest compatibility across various OS's is desired
(or needed).

I have a network of computers that are all my own and I like to transfer
files from ANY folders between computers without the hassle of having to
set permissions. NTFS is too damn secure for my taste.
I do have a couple of NTFS partitions I use for files over 4GB such as long
TV recordings and disk images.
Wasted disk space? So what. I have plenty of it.
