Drum Vs. Disc

It seems to be very common for people to swap drum brakes to disc brakes. Why?

What is the advantage of disc brakes? I would swap from disc to drum before I swapped drum to disc (although all of my vehicles are 4 wheel drive).

IMHO, drum brakes take WAY less pressure to stop. The only time I would rather have discs, is when the time comes for a brake job.
