Canonically, the Planewalker's Guild set up shop somewhere in the Infinite Staircase after they left Sigil, so at least some of the stair's landings would presumably be large enough to support buildings, or perhaps even entire settlements.
They would likely have to reduce staff / salaries to make a real difference in price. I would prefer not to go there.
Put out more than one every 3 months. Have them work on different projects at the same time.
I've looked at Beyond. I can't speak for everyone, but for me, it's not formatted in a useful manner (what can I say; I prefer pdfs), and as others have pointed out, most of that stuff is paywalled. The last time I was there, I couldn't even get to stuff I know is in the srd--it kept trying to get me to buy the PH and DMG. There's probably a way to find the srd material, but after 10-15 minutes of searching, I couldn't find it.
Wouldn’t that result in even less quality and possibly less sales which mean you have to reduce quality even further?
Forget WotC ROI, way more people would be livid over WotC gouging customers by selling 6 small $30 softcovers with the same amount of material as 1 $60 hardcover than would be happy to pay 3 times as much for the same amount of material.
You simple go the all sources folder and the basic rules are there. Similarly, anything with the “basic” tag is from the basic rules and free to anyone. So if you look up the orc it’s “source” is listed as basic - that means anyone can look at / use it.
Yep, and how WotC's decides to sell their product is up to them, and it would be nice if they made shorter, cheaper products. I have little use what they publish currently.
