>>86956071>comic readers aren't fickle as fuckOf course they are, but you're still defining them as comic readers. They're not going to stop reading comics because of a distribution change. That's asinine.
>I insist indies need Diamond to live but I refuse to back it up1) Digital distribution without Diamond's shackles would be cheaper and far superior to the current model for Indies

>and result in LCSs suddenly losing 30-40% of their monthly sales as they go through the process of changing distributorsCustomers don't give a flying fuck about how their product got on the shelves, and the entire point is to phase out LCS. They've been moving to collectible stores for over a decade, finish the transition.
Your argument boils down to "nah, that's dumb" with no actual reasoning.
Innovate or die motherfucker
