PVC vs.. ABS
For drain water systems (ie: no or minimal pressure) it's great. But I don't
think you can use it for supply. I think most people use it because it looks familiar and they aren't really using that much so the cost difference is minimal.

A plumber friend of mine told me that PVC is more expensive than ABS, it does not stand to cold weather as ABS and it sticks out like a sore thumb (white/black).
