I don't use the DVX but I have a Sony VX2000 that I still use sometimes. Here's my 2 cents:
With everything being photoshopped or CGId these days miniDV tape footage, straight from the camera, can be perceived as being less likely to be modified, and therefore more useful in legal matters.
SD cameras such as the DVX and the VX2000 were really good in low light.
SD is ideal for "behind the scenes" footage.
MiniDV is still being used professionally in 2015 in some parts of the world. I discovered this when I went to the Philippines.
If you're an editor you never know when someone is gonna hand you a miniDV tape. I personally have a lot of valuable content filmed on miniDV and might use it someday.
Well lit SD still looks great. Finally, I still watch 360p on YouTube from time to time. If the content is great, and there's no other way to watch it ( often because it was filmed 15 years ago ), I put my prejudices aside and enjoy it anyway.
