That's a good point. Maybe all current business models should be based on decades-old market trends.

Although it also ended with the company producing it going bankrupt, which suggests that longevity as an isolated factor does not a successful edition make.

I dont know man. WotC is struggling to acknowledge that the internet is a thing so where does that place the current business model? Even TSR was using electronic media so I guessing at least pre-90's strategy at this point.

As far as I can see, TSR never went bankrupt before being purchased by WotC.
They are? What behaviors are you seeing that indicates to you that WotC is doing that?
