How profitable is DDI to WotC?

[BryonD]

What can we infer from this, as it applies to D&D? Nothing. Not "nothing quantitative", just nothing.

I didn't say "as it applies to D&D" and neither did you in the point I disputed.

They don't even mention D&D specifically, so for all we know nearly all the spending was for Magic or another WotC brand. That seems unlikely, but we just don't know.

Sure, and if that had been your point I would have agreed.

I thought it was as high as 75,000 subscriptions, but I have no idea where I heard that number. I suspect that is the high end.

If you look back, you'll see this part of discussion arose with respect to the cost of the vaporware VTT and Character Visualizer, which were both DDI thingies, and DDI is related to D&D and D&D alone. People were speculating on how much they cost, and specifically that they must have cost a lot because they were supposedly mentioned in a Hasbro annual report.
