Right now film is better quality than digital (with a few exceptions like very high speed).
In general, your normal ISO 100-400 35mm film has the same image detail as anywhere from a 10-40 megapixel photo. That figure varies in that range depending on what your testing basis is, quality of film, etc.
This means that we are already seeing digital cameras that can produce better quality photos than some low end 35mm film. So it won't be to long before digital will take over in quality.
Of course if you move up in format digital quickly ends up the loser. Medium format ranges up closer to 100 megapixel equivalent and large format can jump up to close to 1000 megapixel equivalent.
