[QUOTE="PJ-Mason, post: 2410632, member: 12285"] Not hardly. There will always be Indie pubs that do it for love, rather than a living. They will always be there [B]in some form[/B]. You'll get maybe more places like RPGNOW (a mix of full and part timers...mostly part timers right now). Maybe just local game publishers that serve their neighbors and maybe the next few towns over (not needing massive shipments or delivery systems). The future of the P&P (since the future of internet publishing is now) industry may be a company that has their own printing press maybe. Who could possibly predict all the permutations. So i say it again, there will always be an industry, it just may not look like the one we have now.
