I never ran an adventure path, but had recently modified 2 episodes from savage tide to use, and was really looking forward to running them.  Then my silly players decided not to wait for  the boat. Off we went in another direction. I think this is a terrible idea and it looks like WotC has lost a lot of good will from this, even if this last page has given some financial reasons for this decision (ie trying to sell adventures) These Magazines, and the hype, the art and the extra details were some of my major spurs to buying products - Spelljammer, Darksun, Expanded Psionics and  more recently Hordes of the Abyss, were all purchases that were driven by the details that I saw featured in Dragon. (of course the previews also made me avoid all things Eberron)  ahh fudge it Im going to bed.</blockquote>
