The hassle of buying and disposing of a real one every year (especially when I've no way to carry it as my car is too small), the limited lifespan, cleaning up needles for months etc. far outweighs the benefit of the smell.
Real ones can't hold as many lights and decorations either unless you like looking at a sagging tree.
There must be a good market for them though, you still see lots of them being stocked and selling every year.
