Doesn't really bother me too much that the new products are kind of boring and limited because there is so much from the past that is still out there to acquire. For me I will always have stuff to hunt down because my PC involves such a wide range of players and span of time.
I agree. With so much nice stuff made in the past, I'd go broke if they still made nice cards. The 90s inserts were always some of my favorites and I can now collect cards I drooled over at the card shop 10+ years ago.
I don't think the hobby will ever completely go away though I see it getting worse with time. Those who love to collect will always collect and may be the only ones left years down the road.
