Though to be fair, if I am saying in the next paragraph, explicitly, that it's hard to do, I don't think I'm to be fairly hoisted on any "impliedly easy" petard.Dragon's circulation is not the issue.  I think you want to look at Ryan Dancey's assertions that WotC was selling HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of COPIES of the Core rulebooks *in the first MONTHS* when 3.0 was released. (300,000 PHBs alone in the first 30 days)Those are the numbers of what a home run looks like. So let's not talk about Dragon circulation numbers in 1983-85 as a high water mark. That is clearly understating the size of the market, based on the above figures.  Now to be fair, is that likely for a revamped DDI service?? No and HELL no. But is it possible? I'd think you'd have to admit that in light of  the foregoing data that the answer is probably a qualified Yes.I don't disagree with you that that is not a bet I want to take nor am I giving odds on it. But is it possible? Yes, I think it is.</blockquote>
