[QUOTE="ExploderWizard, post: 4859857, member: 66434"] As long as maintaining revenue cycles is the top concern, the planning of product life cycles will be a mainstay. Even in the business world there are degrees of acceptable revenue growth. A small private company can produce products,make a profit, and be successful. A large corporation with shareholders to satisfy and stock prices to maintain cannot be content with just making money. If a particular property isn't satisfying expected revenue patterns then decisions have to be made on whether the product is worth producing any longer. It's smart for a company to back the property that produces the bacon. The big question isn't really about the number of books, it's about the amount of profit. How much is enough? How fast must the product treadmill turn to satisfy corporate decision makers? These revenue cycles ultimately determine how fast edition turnover happens. [/QUOTE]
