I don't think anyone could really answer that question without the ability to be able to look into the future. The fact is, digital is the predominate force in photography these days - we may not like it, but it is the reality. No magazine can ignore this, and still survive on the bookstore shelves - not only woudn't it sell, the distributors probably woudn't carry it.
Having said all that, I'm glad that David has stated a firm stance on keeping some film in the magazine. I buy a lot of issues, not every one, as I pointed out before I don't buy it if there is too much digital content - the magazine is a lot more expensive for me here in the US.
David, I have bought and plan to continue buying your magazine, because I appreciate your commitment to film. Keep in mind, 99.9% of my work is in color - in fact, I have not shot a single B&W image in almost a year. But, I still like your magazine.
