Many people buy magazines as "buyer's guides". Content is driven by what is selling. Overall 35mm film SLR sales are flat to declining a bit (the numbers in that other thread are rather meaningless). Digital is the hot area. It's no different in the shows: if a maker didn't have some new digital product, their booth was empty. Digital is an expanding market and film is flat to dropping. Making money means following the money trail, and that leads to digital.

I was looking through the March Shutterbug and they have clearly
declared victory for digital. Most of the articles were about digital
equipment/techniques, including one about a photographer who switched
from MF to digital. I suppose this is inevitable since digital is new
and there's a lot more to talk about (so it's easier to write articles
about it) but unless you're doing digital there's not much point in
reading it.
