I think ANYONE who wants BD to thrive should also have some concern, but hey, if people do not care about the problems then IF the format ends up struggling who is really to blame? The people who complain or the people who ignore the complaints and act like everything is fine when it isn't?

What do you think about the good things that were said in the same article?
No one wants you stop worrying. That is your opinion and you are entitled to it. Btw as is my opinion to think, that the format is actually doing better than i would have expected it to do last year at this time in 2008 btw. It just had the second best week in sales ever during a raging recession, that has everyone frightened. And that is what successful formats do, they grow even when times are tough and common sense would lead one to believe and expect otherwise. So excuse me, if i don't share the pessimism.
Let's get back to what this is actually about. The complaints are not about the contents of the article. If you think they are so troubling, why didn't the first thread about the same article cause such a long reaction of several pages of bickering? I'll answer this for you: because the first thread wasn't cut out to be flamebait thread like this one. And what a successful flamebait this is, just look at how long it is.
We have come a long way here at HDF. Former combatants from both sides have almost learned to live with each other peacefully, i will not call out any names. Then once in a while we get some active smackdown combatants from other forums, who start their sh!t tactics here. And you know what: this would without a doubt lead to more re-enactments of the format war. And i don't want that and that is why this thread is bothering me.
That exec's say funny things, i couldn't care less about. Sorry.
