It would be terrible if it died! Several start-ups, Fortune500 companies, consultants, VCs, and Angels I deal with say they use the magazine for biz dev, research, and biz model justification. B2.0 fills the white space between Inc/Entrepreneur and Forbes/Fortune/BizWeek. Wake up Time! Your readers are not going anywhere, so start selling more ads and/or raise the price. Many would happily pay more for this great magazine!

They make it sound like it's so easy to have success and that all you have to do is find some small competitive advantage and you're on the road to riches. I know the stories behind a lot of the companies they write articles about, and I find that the writing does not serve the reader well. I only signed up because it was $12/year, and now I don't even really read it because I'm annoyed after I go through it each time.
