It isn't just anime publications feeling the pinch but also regular
magazines and newspapers. Part of it is the economy, but the biggest
factor is the INTERNET. More and more people are getting their news,
entertainment and anime news from online sources rather than from
print. So, this can't be counted as a decline of Anime but is a part
of the decline of print media as a whole as its slowly usurped by the
Internet. This is a case where the surviving publications must make
the decision to adapt to the changes in the market to live on or close
up shop. Its basic evolution, if you can't adapt to a changing
environment you go extinct. The same holds true for ANY business,
that includes the recording and movie industries. They're environment
is changing, they're violently trying resisting evolution but you
can't fight it no matter how hard they try they can't stop it and they
need to understand this and adapt or become irrelevant. Newspapers
have been learning this lesson as well in recent weeks.
