I would imagine that, before too long, more 'new' magazines, tracts, whatever...will be there...
Printed out at the 'publishers' expense... -

Looks like they are extricating themselves from the printing bull shit business. Hey why print when you can download for free,, the same bullshit, saving many many trees, not to mention sell factory properties and down size stalling for time before the cash runs out, figuring out new ways to dupe the credulous and maybe turn a profit$$ every so often.
This is phase out step one, sell factories lay off all slave labor except the bare bones neccesarry to look after property until sold, then as no longer needed get rid of excess baggage until it is just an internet organization praying on the hard core gullible and rare occasional convert.
As long as they got a web site where they can make request for contributions and a substantial group of die hard loyalist they can keep publishing the Good News for many more decades but always with less and less profitability,, no more steady increases in the gullible ranks and files, like their ignorance is bliss hay days before the internet.

I'm thinking the WT corporation will 'encourage' the loyal die hard followers to just download the monthly specials and have them just fold and staple them neatly to offer to the public for free.

As the world becomes more informed and the internet becomes a household tool through out the world, it spells real trouble for a delusional printing corporation to make a profit even with slave labor from indoctrinated uneducated drones.
Since they forbid getting a decent education to rank and file members, contributions are way down because you can't squeeze blood from a stone or the fact that most loyal die hard JWs don't even earn much more above poverty level and so have very little money for the most part.
Downsize like fucking crazy seems to be the Watchtower Corporation's MO presently. Attendance is way down, so that they can start merging different congregations and selling Kingdom Halls and send the proceeds to the WT bank account.
Sell Sell Sell! property make an all out effort to make better indoctrination videos that can be downloaded to the rank and file's computers that will keep them entertained while swallowing the WT corp. propaganda about being close to the end of the world and the need to Listen Obey and be Blessed by God's earthly organization made up of the Governing Body who is the faithful and discreet slave of God (which ironically makes them masters).
Hell they can be whittled down to a website operated by the Governing Body and Governing Body helpers with a low budget recording studio (where everybody cooks and cleans for themselves no maid service) for making downloadable propaganda for the swiftly dwindling Great Crowd of Armageddon survivors that are keeping on the watch so as to be ready for the master's arrival right on time(when ever that is?).
In what 10 or 20 years? Maybe these things have a tendency to pick up the pace once one has reached the point of no return.

I feel the WT corporation has reached its point of no return during the first decade of internet existence and that the WT's dishonest published figures of growth were an attempt to keep the downward spiral from its members alerting them to the Organization's demise from erroneous end of the world predictions.
So that any graphs that one can make from the WT corporation publish figures should be enclosed with the caution that: "these figures are very biased from a cult with a proven high degree of denial and outright delusional falsehoods bias, and are probably a lot worse then they will admit to".
Which I think explains why the Kingdom Hells are being sold like hot cakes while the societies figures don't show that much negative growth. They are stuck in denial and cherry pick made up facts to forecast future events. Not very good for making solidly business plans for the corporations future survival. All this mental fog for guiding how asset are to be used, not very wise.
