Will this be the future of the industry
It seems at the moment that way. It is all about money. You can not make big profits anymore with photography in the internet. That time is over.
The more important it is for us now, to make DPRforum as strong and as big as possible. Then we might be able to make even more out of DPRforum than what we see today.
We have a great and futureproof software setup, which does not costs a fortune to run like in the case of dpreview with all this individual programming. It is up to the community to make it now bigger and take the next steps.
It is up to you all, that things like dpreview and Imaging Resource do not happen again. Support us and tell others about us. Read this below and always keep it in your memory:

OBITUARY
Our church was saddened to learn this week of the death of one of our most valued members,
Someone Else.
Someone's passing creates a vacancy that will be difficult to fill.
Else has been with us for many years and for every one of those years,
Someone did far more than a normal person's share of the work. Whenever there was a job to do, a class to teach, or a meeting to attend, one name was on everyone's list, "Let
Someone Else do it."
Whenever leadership was mentioned, this wonderful person was looked to for inspiration as well as results; "
Someone Else can work with that group." It was common knowledge that
Someone Else was among the most liberal givers in our church. Whenever there was a financial need, everyone just assumed
Someone Else would make up the difference.
Someone Else was a wonderful person; sometimes appearing superhuman. Were the truth known, everybody expected too much of
Someone Else. Now
Someone Else is gone! We wonder what we are going to do.
Someone Else left a wonderful example to follow, but who is going to follow it? Who is going to do the things
Someone Else did?
When you are asked to help, remember -- we can't depend on
Someone Else anymore.
