The Process Forum - View Single Post - Has the bottom fallen out of the growth/GTS paid content market?

Well, piracy has *always* been a problem with this stuff. It seems unlikely that it would've gotten so much worse within the last year that it drove everyone out of the market (though it did finally cause a change in how Media Impact does their stuff).

Tetsu's always been kind of a slow worker (though definitely worth the wait), but I have noticed a sharp decline in ZZZ's output. No idea why, though. Patreon may have something to do with it, as it seems like a more reliable source of money than just putting out a comic and hoping it sells. However, I don't see that as a likely culprit for the entirety of the problem...

I'd say send Z a message and ask what's up, but he isn't the best at replying in a timely fashion (or, y'know, at all).

I plan to start doing a few growth comics myself, once I get a couple of my outstanding debts paid off. Maybe in a few years' time I'll have an explanation right from the horse's mouth? lol
