[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 6754595, member: 1"] Yikes. I am not really invested enough in this debate to start getting all line-by-line, especially since it seems to be arguing against a position that I don't really hold. For you. Not for them, obviously. They don't make decisions based only on information that you have! We're talking about TV. Movies work entirely differently. Let's stay on target. We've already established that we don't have any data, so let's not draw conclusions based on our own lack of information. I gathered that you think it's a mistake. You've said so very clearly. As I said, I don't think we're really able to say that one way or the other. As opposed to confidently asserting that something is a bad business model when you have none of the data, or know little of the long-term plans? There's no argument to be had here. We're all just speculating. We should just try to avoid the whole "WotC is stupid because they didn't make the book exactly how I would make it!" trope, because I think it just makes us look silly. Well, if you're citing logical fallacies, I'm sure you can identify this one! :) I don't [i]know[/i] that they have a plan. It could all go wrong. You're misunderstanding me completely - it would be ridiculous of me to claim that they have one, when I clearly have no way of knowing that. I'm saying that boldly asserting that they don't have a good plan in place or that the business model is poor is equally ridiculous. With a side-order of my not really caring how it's shown in the US, because that's not the method I'll have access to. That's just a non-conversation for me. I don't think I'd even heard of CBS before this thread! [/QUOTE]
