Shyrell,

You answered your own question...WalMart. Their target audience is people
that want to take a few shots and get the film processed. Having worked
behind a camera counter, you would be surprised at the number of people who
will not get a roll of film processed unless they have used the entire roll.
I used to know customers that would have ONE shot left and would not pull
the roll until they used the last frame. Shooting that last frame sometimes
took several weeks.  And to top it off any place that sells film and
processing makes their profits on processing. Thus shorter rolls means more
more film preocessed sooner.
