Yes, most of us are early adopters. I'd say some of us are heavy readers, most are average readers, few are light readers. But being early adopters, the problems we identify may not be as important to
most readers (which would be those who don't hang around this site) as they are to us.
I'm sure publishers are looking at many of the problems we discuss here and consider them to be important only to "a few geeks"... that's us. They are also looking at the profit of making changes for "a few geeks," and seeing it as more profitable to let us sit and spin.
In short, they'll make changes where they see it as doing the most good (ie, being the most profitable), and the rest will be ignored. I'd bet a lot of things we MR members would like to see are on their "ignored" list.
