Here's question that was asked:
Here was the response:
We already know that the online content plans will replace the printed magazines. The question was, why "replacement" instead of "co-existence"? I think we can guess the answer. Just come out and say it.

Is it just me, or are these not answers to the question posed to them?Chris: Our online content plans will replace the printed magazines. That aside, we are still very much in the business of producing printed products.
Bill: I also want to take a moment to quell some related rumors. D&D is not going away. In no way do our plans call for the end of face-to-face tabletop gaming. We are not making an MMORPG. We will continue to produce printed, for-sale, published products.
