I agree, I thought it wasn't up to it's usual standards and also noticed the change in emphasis to digital.
Another thing which really worries me is the announcement of the new editor, David Corfield. Now, I know nothing about him at all, but what concerned me was the mention that he's been a deputy editor on Practical Photography and Photography Monthy. Two magazines which are very strong digital evangelists. The last time I brought PM a year or two ago, I chucked the mag into the bin after traditional photographers were derided as luddites and scared of computers. As someone who has a PhD in Computer Science I probably know more about computers than everyone working on that rag put together.
