[QUOTE="CRG, post: 260433, member: 5867"] Anthony... No reflection on you personally. I think by now you must know that most of us are worse than a bunch of gossiping hens. That said.... Business is not making the dough which the higher-ups want. More dough is required. Problem is, from the analogy being discussed, the only option for making the FR line sell better is to get rid of story and make more crunch. Now, none of us live in a world of single-metrics. Why does a FR product sell? Is it just crunch vs non-crunch? No. There are probably a dozen major factors that go into it. However, if simplified to the level of crunch vs. non-crunch and as long as that is the topic then I have to think that (a) I don't agree with the apparrent and allegorical decision and (b) there may be no good way to make the ultimate bosses-of-bosses happy. Since you're reading...are there any other thoughts you can share about what MAY be coming to make FR or other products sell better that are not simply crunch v non-crunch? [/QUOTE]
