With Digital cameras your image sensor can burn out or get enough bad

No, but it may account for why a digital camera becomes "obsolete" faster.
The CCD or CMOS sensors are under constant improvement, and not just in
terms of the number of pixels or resolution. Efficiency of converting
light to electrical energy, power drain, sensitivity, etc.

Sorta analogous to new or improved film types developed for older, film
based cameras.
