I broke down the prices so they could be compared. Your right that I didn't include the the cost if it went under, and maybe I should have. The question though is how much am I willing to spend to make sure it survives. As long as I feel I am getting my monies worth I will support Dungeon. Thats why I also included the price of a 100 page Dundeon for $10. I don't know what the break even point for a standalone Dungeon is but I am willing to pay this for one. Now if I don't feel I am getting my moneys worth I won't buy it and it won't matter to me anymore whether it continues to exist or not. Now each to his own and the comparisons are out there and everyone can decide for themselves where thier value point for Dungeon is. I'm not the one who brought the subject up, but it is a valid thing to consider. If I can purchase an equivalent product (in this case adventures) for a better price then why should I support the more expensive one? To me (and others may be different) Poly has no value so I am comparing what does have value to me and that is adventures. As I stated previously if you like Poly then this is a great deal.See above.Since I feel the 2/3 Dungeon issues are still worth it I will continue to purchace them. Apparently I am not alone in this. It will be interesting to see what happens to thier sale figues. When they made this descion they stated that they had looked at all the economic models and this is the one that worked best. I am curious whether they expected this reaction and accounted for it. Do they expect the subscriber base to increase, decrease or remain the same, and will it meet thier expectations? Are they prepared for newsstand sales to fluctuate depending on which version it is? I will continue to purchase every other issue and hope that they did take these things into account so the magazine will continue  to exist. I also wouldn't be surprised if 6 months to a year from now we hear about another change because this model is not working as they expected.</blockquote>
