But that's because the viewship of online people has exceeded the
readership of offline people. Twenty years ago, you could not say that,
as the situation was reversed.
And the sun rises in the east. Sorry, but what you just said feels
like a tautological statement to me.
Yeah, 20 years ago there weren't as many people online. But even 20
years ago (that's 1989), BYTE was already dead (last issue July '98)
and DDJ was already declining. Funny, I
used to think of Byte as a hardware mag...
It was when they drifted away from that I started to lose interest.
More hardware discussion happens on the net nowadays than ever
happened in BYTE magazine, even in its heyday.
