They're working on ways to piss off entitled gamers who will never be pleased.
I think it is possible that there is a mandate to focus on the Adventurer's League over other content. If the in-house team is directing most of its attention to AL modules that suggests WotC thinks AL is worth their investment more than, say, a Realms hardcover. That leads to the question as to how: in what way does AL monetize D&D? Is it just core book sales? Are the events actually profitible? Is there a microtransaction element to it? T-shirts?
ANyone big into the AL? What's your take?
You sell more products to people if they are actively playing, and in general you sell more to DM's
Focusing on AL instead of home games is a bad move. I know loads of people who are no where near a store that does AL.
Funny how Paizo is able to give full focus on Pathfinder Society as well as put out loads of product.

It may just be you will be happier with their approach to releasing loads of product. Doesn't appear WotC is going that way.
Complaining about the slow pace of releases probably puts you at the very bottom of the list of consumers that Wizards is concerned about pacifying. I mean, you're pretty much a guaranteed sale, right?
