Why is WoTc still pushing AP's when the majority of gamers want something else?

[QUOTE="marcelvdpol, post: 6961004, member: 6837387"] The Adventures are a pretty good way to sell books and get players to enjoy DnD 5th edition. For people who dont have a huge amount of time on their hands to create their own setting and adventures they are a good way to play. The tie-in with Adventure League for casual storerelated play is also there. While id love a Dark Sun or Eberon source book, these sorts of boos tend to take qiite a bit of work to turn into something that can be used at the table. Besides, someone could take the information and stories.from the 4th edition source books as inspiration. I think source books will come, but at a slow pace with maybe one per year / one per two years and even then i think they might be combined with an included Adventure for a complete package (source material and something that can be used at the table with little work). Personally i like source books; just reading through them is already fun for me. However, this is just my taste and most certainly not representative for the majority of players. Another thing i like is good quality books. I would much prefer fewer books of high quality than many books with much lower quality. The huge volume of 4th edition books prevented me from seeing the books that i would have enjoyed (this was a separate issue next to other issues i had with 4th edition; these issues were however unrelated to the current discussion).
