In all seriousness- if you're familiar with 1e, you should know that BECMI (and the Rule Cyclopedia) is much closer to 1e than to 5e, except with the whole race as class thing.
I've seriously tried, but I cannot get into to anything beyond Basic D&D and AD&D1e. D20 just does nothing for me. Every version that came out, I tried to read the game rules and be part of the interest but the game is so different than Basic/ADD1e that it might as well be an entirely different game altogether.
I really tried more so with 5e because I was under the impression that the creators made this so it would interest the Mystara people, but it doesn't. It's like playing football one day and waking up in a place where football is now called soccer and you were expected to jump in and learn the rules.
Or maybe it is like being happy with my vinyl records and cassette tapes (ask your grandparents!), and then the music industry decides to only print CD's forcing you to make life changes in how you purchase and listen to music.

Ding!!! Why come to a 5th edition forum and make that statement?? I am not going to spend the time on it. Once again beware of the trolls!!
Yep, classic D&D is still relatively popular.As has been noted, pre-2000 D&D remains one of the more popular RPGs, and continues to get lots of new material, plus having tons of old material readily available.
But nope, the available statistics says classic D&D is not as popular as you think.I think it would probably be easier to find a game then even the most popular newer games that are not D&D, like Savage Worlds or FF Star Wars, which is its own kind of commentary, for another thread.
