Why is it that everytime some sort of bad news comes out people predict/insinuate the demise of WoTC. Afterall, while Pokemon may have had Revenues of 40 million - what was the profit on the line???? That is the number that we should focus on.
Also, based off of the various discussions that the lawyers on the board have had, it would be next to impossible for Hasbro to put the SRD genie back into the bottle - much to the betterment of the entire hobby.
I have been saying this for a while now. It really seems to me hasbro has been saying to wotc "profits or pink slips."
Wotc had to kill chainmail which was doing ok for a first year nitch market game [rather than the NEXT BIG THING], is realeasing a revised edition of d&d MUCH sooner than nessasary [i really do suspect it is more because core rulebook sales are slumping rather than NEEDING the update, but that is just me. i am a paranoid person at times].
Hasbro will not likely be happy with nitch market profits.
