[QUOTE="Rob Kuntz, post: 8243127, member: 7015759"] Well that's certainly the bean-counter's way of viewing it if that is indeed WotC's position. Having been close to many TSR Dragon editors I know that the ads pay for the magazine, What costs that are not paid for through ads (and subscriptions/shelf copy sales) are absorbed by the company. Print is about dedication to a consumer base that keeps the multi-tiered company, in this case, going. It's an added Thank You as well as an ad churner and hype producer. Perhaps the nitty-gritty days of print are gone for such media; and it appears to be nip-n-tuck with theaters vs. direct to streaming. as well. Taking print mediums and theater away eliminates unique cultural and societal experiences. It shortens and shades in gray colors the social horizon contracting it towards isolation. I've personally had enough of that with Covid. But as I've stated elsewhere, WotC will do what they do. Not all experiences are equal however nor are they all just about ":getting the information."
