Message: <blockquote data-quote="barsoomcore" data-source="post: 1950156" data-attributes="member: 812">The "operating system" analogy's  not a very good one, says I -- since picking up Eberron doesn't make me uninterested in FR. I mean, if I switch from Macintoshes to PCs (heavens and all saints forbid) I suddenly have ZERO interest in Macintosh software. It holds ZERO value for me.Whereas just because I decide to run an Eberron campaign, doesn't necessarily have much to do with my level of interest in FR material. If I'm an FR guy, I'll probably buy most well-done FR supplements as they come out. Sure, there's SOME impact, but by no means to the degree that an OS switch has. I mean, I know my Eberron campaign's going to finish up at some point, and maybe I'll run an FR game after that.I can firmly say that the OGL has increased my gaming purchases dramatically. From roughly ZERO to several hundred dollars a year, which unless my math skills are worse than I think, is INFINITELY more, ratio-wise.So obviously WotC is making an infinite amount of money, which is nice for them. Maybe they can get a little beachfront property in Costa Rica.I was actually intrigued by Tav's suggestion that there are 20 millionaires in this industry. I find that a very very large number. I'd actually be surprised to learn there was ONE millionaire in this industry. Nobody else has commented on this; am I the only one who thinks this way?Of course, all you millionaires will probably post saying, "Oh yeah, way out of line, bc, and can you spare a dime?"</blockquote>
