A Title Much Cooler Than Anything on the Old Site
A significant amount of D&D fans are collectors. As long as people buy expensive printed books, they will continue printing and selling expensive books.
There really is no need for me to buy the print books. I've not used the printed version of any WotC book during a game in a couple years. I use D&D Beyond. For third-party books I almost exclusively use PDF versions when running games.
But I still buy lots of print books. I like how they look on the shelf and when I have free time, I like to skim the spines, grab a book and flip through it. It might be my age, but I've yet to find a digital book that captures the feeling of "browsing" a shelf of books and flipping through a physical book.
For reference and reading, I prefer digital. For browsing and perusing rules and adventures in my solo free time, or admiring art, give me print.
