John:
I would agree for areas without hurricane potential. I would also advocate metal roofing because of its inherent strength (puncture resistant and flexible--won't shatter), light weight, and fire proof properties. However, a nail here and there like most installers use will not do. Adhesive and screws, preferably bronze or stainless!!!!!
The sad thing about tile roofs in strong winds is that they literally depend on their weight to keep them in place. Out here in AZ, they are installed with galvanized nails!! Woo Hoo!! Their weight is both an asset and a liability.
