[QUOTE="Curtisimo, post: 2935701, member: 83845"]The discussion was not about the economics of HC content it was about the legitimacy of lamenting the change in it. I think it's perfectly reasonable for those who enjoyed the old format to miss the way it was. Does the HC make more money now than they did? I'm sure they do but for a niche content provider to decide to play at the mainstream is a two edge sword. The mainstream is fickle and if you "alienate" (see what I did there :greyalien::blackalien::meh::)) your base once you reach an inflection point you've made a bad long term play. Every product is better in the long term if it stays true to the spirit of its original vision. Of course nothing said on a coin forum is going to change the direction of the decision makers until they start losing viewers. I do like many of HC programs.
